CHIME opens up membership to CTOs, CAOs

The College of Healthcare Information Management Executives is expanding its ranks to chief technology officers (CTOs) and chief application officers (CAOs). The group traditionally has served CIOs, and earlier this year launched a new trade group for chief security officers and chief information security officers.

The CHIME board is growing the organization as a result of member feedback that high-level educational and professional development opportunities for key members of the CIO’s executive team were extremely limited, according to the association.

CHIME specifically has launched the Association for Executives in Healthcare Information Technology for CTOs and the Association for Executives in Healthcare Information Applications for CAOs.
