Welcome to the HFMA Hawaii Chapter Website!
If you are a new member, or visiting our site for the first time, welcome! The Hawaii Chapter of HFMA is part of a large, national organization made for professionals like you. Being a part of HFMA allows us to share ideas, learn and develop professionally alongside other members who are employed by every type of organization in the industry—health care providers, physician practices, health plans, educational institutions, health care consultants, and companies that offer vendor solutions. Our membership includes those who work for organizations big and small—from entry level positions to the CEO—as well as those who work independently from their home office. By being a part of our organization, you will have access to the latest information in any form of media you choose—social media, webinars, seminars, publications and our local and national websites.
If you are a veteran member of HFMA, welcome back! We have a lot of exciting things in store for members this year. In addition to all of the many benefits offered by being part of HFMA national, this year promises to be extra special for our chapter. In January 2012, it is Hawaii’s turn to lead the Region 11 Symposium at Caesar’s Palace in Las Vegas. Our chapter is playing a key role in planning the event, and we would love to have you join us! In April 2012, we will host our largest local event at the Ala Moana Hotel. It has become one of the larger 2-day seminars put on by any professional organization in Hawaii.
No matter what your affiliation, we want to help you make the most of your membership with HFMA. In addition to everything I mentioned above, I believe the greatest opportunity HFMA offers its members, is a chance to develop as a leader and build lasting relationships with others in the healthcare industry. The value of the dollar amount you pay in membership fees really comes from the time you invest in using the resources made available to you and getting involved in some way with our local chapter. Take a minute or two to check out our website, and never hesitate to contact me if you have any interest at all in getting involved or in making a suggestion on how we can improve. I hope to see you soon at a future HFMA event.
