April 2009

Neil Calman, M.D., will represent the interests of vulnerable populations on the new Health Information Technology Policy Panel created by the Obama administration to make recommendations on developing health information technology (HIT) infrastructure in the U.S. – a critical component of the administration’s overall health reform plan. ACU wrote a letter endorsing Calman’s appointment.

“I am honored to have been appointed to this group of incredibly knowledgeable and creative leaders,” Calman said. “As the administration works to make high-quality, affordable health care available to all Americans, we will be working to create a significant part of the technology framework in support of that effort. The challenges ahead are substantial but the opportunities are even greater.”
