CHIME Public Policy (2)

Navigating the intricate landscape of federal legislation, regulations, swift news cycles, and partisanship can be daunting, but CHIME’s Public Policy team is here to help. We possess in-depth expertise on health IT policies that directly impact our members and work alongside you to advocate for your interests in Washington, DC, and keep you informed.


By way of member-led workgroups, our Policy Steering Committee, and our Board of Trustees, CHIME gathers forward-thinking ideas, vital needs, and innovative solutions from digital health executives who are working tirelessly to improve health and care in their communities. The Public Policy team then uses member feedback to inform and influence federal policies meant to advance the delivery of health and care in the United States through information technology. 


The Public Policy team is available to assist you and answer any questions you may have – just email [email protected].

The CHIME Public Policy Program was founded in 2007 as a direct result of our members’ desire to influence change in Washington for the betterment of healthcare and to improve patient experience.

The team serves as the collective voice for our members, advocating on their behalf for digital health policies that improve the health and care in the communities they serve, and the patients they care for.

With a strong presence in Washington, the team collaborates closely with members to offer educational and technical policy leadership to Congress, the White House, and federal agencies.
