SI Advisors

The SI Advisors are the eyes, ears and heart of what makes SI a small-but-mighty organization dedicated to sharing best practices and thought leadership content through education, collaboration and networking. Each July we convene the SI Advisors to gather their thoughts on top strategic, technical and operational concerns faced by today’s progressive, integrated health systems. We also communicate informally with SI Advisors throughout the year to keep our finger on the pulse of industry thought leadership. Our conversations with SI Advisors inform the design of the SI Roadmap for the coming year, in terms of our Webinars and Fireside Chats schedule; Affinity Group Dialogues, Roundtables and Summits; and our Annual Conference agenda. Most importantly, Advisor input helps architect a vision of the emerging Health System of the Future.
