The LaTour Eichenwald Forum on HIIM Leadership and Innovation honors the pioneering spirit of two of Health Information Management’s most highly regarded professionals, Kathleen LaTour and the late Shirley Eichenwald Maki. Each November, a keynote speaker is invited to discuss emerging trends and best practices in the HIIM field.
Join Us this November
This year’s Forum draws on the history of health informatics and hard-won leadership lessons. Our keynote speaker, Dr. Bryan Jarabek, Chief Medical Informatics Officer and practicing hospitalist at Fairview Health System, charts a human-first, AI-forward path for informatics and healthcare. His approach is one in which technology returns time, earns trust, and makes care more human, while informatics careers evolve to make that future a reality.
