Content, Insight, Opinions, Tips & a Bit of Wackiness from #HITMC

Read this post and the next handful of posts over the next week and you'll learn a LOT about marketing healthcare IT products and services.

The tweets emanating from last week’s Healthcare IT Marketing Conference event had a SHIT TON of good information for those of us involved with healthcare information technology, creating content in support of healthcare IT and promoting its use and acceptance.

I've screen scraped all tweets tagged with #HITMC from Wednesday, April 5th through Friday, April 7th into a structured format and ran a few ‘categorization algorithms’ to group them into various categories based on my knowledge and interpretation.

Note: Since I was scheduled to participate on a panel at the HITMC event and was unable to make it to Las Vegas last Thursday, this post and the following related posts are my amends to HITMC registrants and others for not making it to the HITMC event last week.

Come join the #HITsm chat this Friday, April 14th, 2017 at 9:00am PST to share and learn more about healthcare IT marketing and messaging.

Since there are quite a few tweets, I thought I’d share them across a handful (actually almost two handfuls) of blog posts. Since the theme of this Friday’s #HITsm tweet chat is about the HITMC chat, I’ll try to kick out all these posts prior to the #HITsm chat of Friday, April 14th at 9:00am PST.
