professional development needs of those CIOs and advocates for the
more effective use of information management within healthcare. The
CHIME Foundation, created in 1994 to provide support for the

leverage health information technology to advance patient care and
patient safety," said Keith Hagen, president and CEO of QuadraMed.
"We look forward to actively engaging healthcare CIOs in an ongoing
dialogue to solve the significant IT challenges confronting our
industry today. Their feedback will help us to further transform
quality care into positive financial outcomes for providers.� �We
look forward to getting to know these organizations through their
participation as Premier members in the CHIME Foundation,� said
Rick Schooler, VP & CIO at Orlando Regional Healthcare and
Chair of the CHIME Foundation Board of Directors. �Each CHIME
Foundation firm contributes so greatly to the success of the
organization, as well as to the success of the healthcare IT
industry as a whole.� About the CHIME Foundation The CHIME
Foundation was formed by CHIME�s Board of Directors in 1994.
Incorporated as a separate nonprofit organization, the Foundation
was structured to support CHIME�s programs and activities. In 1994,
fifteen firms stepped forward to become the Foundation�s first
group of firms. The Foundation Board of Directors, chaired annually
by the past chair of CHIME, has established a set of educational
activities and surveys designed to promote collaboration between
the Foundation and members of CHIME. CHIME Foundation firms and the
members of CHIME have discovered mutual benefits in such activities
as focus group discussions, networking at meetings, and image and
identity awareness via visibility opportunities on the CHIME member
website and communications. To learn more about the CHIME
