CHIME Public Policy Program was founded in 2007 and we work alongside our members to provide educational and technical policy leadership to Congress and the White House. Through member-led workgroups, our Policy Steering Committee and Board of Trustees, CHIME serves as the voice of healthcare IT executives, informing and influencing federal policies meant to transform the delivery of healthcare in the United States using information technology.
