PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE

 

As always, summer seems to pass too quickly.  Now that fall is here, all the numerous hours of planning and preparation by our Program and Education Committee are about to pay off.  September marks the start of our Chapter’s educational programs.  As I am writing this, the final touches are being put on our Fall Institute “Healthcare Reform: Making It Count”

September also brought us our second social event of the year – An evening at Citizen’s Bank Park watching the Phillies move closer to another division title (September 24th vs. the Houston Astros).  We had an incredible demand for tickets this year and fortunately / unfortunately our 105 tickets sold out in only two days.  I would like to offer a special thanks to the Social Committee Co-Chairs (Matt Musgnung, Matt Killinger, and Rich Niwiniski) for pulling this great event together.  Matt Killinger’s head is probably still spinning from the barrage of responses he got over a 48 hour period.

 




Finally, we closed out September with an educational opportunity that is a little different from what we have offered our members in the past.  Special thanks to our Program Committee Co-Chair, Chris Niwiniski, for partnering HFMA with the Villanova School of Business to bring “The Disney Keys to Excellence” program to our membership.

 

Our fall calendar continues to be packed with first class educational opportunities for our members.  Here are some of the highlights:

  • We are pleased to announce that we are bringing back our November “Revenue Cycle Seminar”.  This year’s event will be held on November 19th.  

  • Please continue to check our web-site for information on new educational events that we will be offering, including our FREE “Lunch-n-Learn” Webinars (coming this fall)
As always, any and all suggestions for improvement are welcome.  Please feel free to send me an e-mail at tscarcelli@ima-consulting.com, or contact any of our Officers or Board of Directors.

Sincerely,
Tony Scarcelli
Chapter President, 2009 / 2010
