The Trusted Healthcare Information Solutions Alliance (THISA), a national network of regional IT solution providers for the healthcare industry, today announced its presence in booth #4345 at the annual conference of the Healthcare Information and Management Systems Society (HIMSS), February 12-16 in San Diego.


THISA first grabbed headlines at last year's HIMSS event, when it launched as a never-before-seen alternative for healthcare organizations to access solutions and services that maximize cost, convenience, and compliance - and truly fit their IT needs and budgets. This year, THISA will demonstrate how it has delivered on the promises of its launch, showcasing real-world client success stories over the past year. Highlighting the most pressing needs in today's healthcare industry, the THISA exhibit will include a series of stations with service and solution offerings in four critical areas: improving patient & data security, ensuring disaster recovery & business continuity, enabling secure access to applications and data, and simplifying IT management.


"The THISA model is unique in its ability to offer the service quality and cost-savings found with smaller regional providers, backed by the best practices and accountability of a proven national presence. This has resonated strongly with healthcare organizations who are looking for specialized expertise and methodologies, a personalized approach, and best-of-breed solutions," said Omar Yakar, CEO of Agile360 , a founding member of THISA. "We're excited to present this at HIMSS, and offer a real hands-on look at the value that THISA is providing as a trusted partner to a growing number of healthcare organizations around the country."


Members of the press interested in speaking with THISA representatives at HIMSS, please contact Kevin McLaughlin at 877-505-2258 x902 or kmclaughlin@publicipartners.com for a briefing.


THISA is open to solutions providers, system integrators, professional services organizations, and other companies focused on the healthcare industry. THISA members exhibiting at HIMSS include I-Access, Agile 360, DBLS, DeVA Systems Group, LANStatus, and Laurus Technologies.
