We also have tony mccormick and xavier talking about OpenEMR. Is Hoyt a OpenEMR user? It looks like we will probably have slots for him to speak no matter what but I want to keep it to FOSS in healthcare, not IT in healthcare. HIMSS/AMIA is for that....
Generally, I am planning on having 50 minute sessions. 30 minutes of talking and 20 minutes of discussion. So your sessions would be Tony McCormick Xavier You Not sure what Hoyt will talk about. Dr Brody will be talking about CCHIT and FOSS specifically. Your timeslots will not be sequential either , Dr. Brody specifically requested that he speak on Friday.... I will try to bunch everyone else on Saturday though, if that is what you want? Is that what you want? -FT On Tue, Jul 21, 2009 at 9:32 PM, sickleofzeus <drbo...@charter.net> wrote: > --- In openhealth@yahoogroups.com, fred trotter <fred.trot...@...> wrote: > > > > Hi everyone, > > So we have just gotten 95% confirmation that the facilities > for > > FOSSHealth 09 (which happens at the end of the month) will be provided by > > HAL-PC. http://www.hal-pc.org/ > > HAL-PC is the largest PC users group in the world.
