A Global Innovation Initiative Transforming Health and Care
Through Education and Innovation Facilitation

  • Summary

    CHIME Innovation is a global healthcare innovation initiative of the College of Healthcare Information Management Executives (CHIME).

    CHIME Innovation includes innovation-specific education, innovation facilitation, and physical centers and labs designed around collaboratively solving healthcare problems. The first Innovation Center was launched in partnership with Intermountain Healthcare in Utah.

    Education is a cornerstone of CHIME Innovation, which will be presented at the centers and labs, available remotely as well. Additional programming and value-added services are being developed to meet the needs of CHIME’s unique membership and the global healthcare community.

    “The most meaningful workshop I have ever attended.” 
                                            — Reid Stephan, CIO, St. Luke’s Health System
