HIMSS (Healthcare Information and Management Systems Society) is the healthcare industry's membership organization exclusively focused on providing leadership for the optimal use of healthcare information technology and management systems for the betterment of human health.
HIMSS Foundation: As the philanthropic arm of the Healthcare Information and Management Systems Society, the HIMSS Foundation is dedicated to furthering healthcare IT professions. Since the early 1990s, we have awarded more than $150,000 in scholarships to more than 45 exceptional students with exceptional results.
HIMSS JobMine is an interactive online job search tool for healthcare professionals. Candidates can post resumes, receive job alerts, research potential employers, and track responses to job postings.* Employers can use resume searching and job posting tools to add, remove, replace, or modify job postings. Posting your job with JobMine is also more affordable than other job boards.
The HIMSS Users Group Alliance Program was developed in October 2003 as a means to create a variety of independent communities within HIMSS that help you do your job better. Through the program, HIMSS is collaborating with healthcare IT organizations to provide environments for you to exchange technology-related ideas, challenges, and solutions.
