President’s Message
Dear HFMA Colleagues,
I am so excited to work with our chapter this year and provide you, our members, with more opportunities in education, networking and collaboration with other healthcare leaders. We have a fantastic board of directors who are eager to serve you, and together, we are well-equipped to provide the utmost value and growth for our members in the upcoming year. We are all fortunate to be a part of a top-notch professional organization that has been around for the past 75 years.
We hope each of you will take the time to attend one of our events this year and discover new ways to get involved, volunteer or become certified. Our Fall Educational conference is just around the corner, and we promise to present many CPE credit opportunities, chances to connect with peers and get involved with our philanthropy partner, the Judeo-Christian Outreach Center (JCOC). We had impressive attendance at previous conferences, and we expect this year’s two main events to be bigger than ever. People need people and getting out and meeting with others is a terrific way to stay involved and up to date on the latest in healthcare.
We would like to thank our leaders from every provider organization across our geographic area for all they do to participate with our chapter, the Virginia Hospital and Healthcare Association (VHHA) for their partnership and collaboration, our Enterprise members for their continued support and investment, and lastly, we would not be here without our sponsors. Our annual chapter sponsors provide us with incredible support throughout the year. You, our members, are who we’re here to serve and we want to offer you the best experience through your membership. If you have an interest in getting more involved in any aspect of the chapter, please reach out to [email protected] and we will get you connected. We value you and appreciate your membership.
I wish everyone a happy and healthy summer and look forward to seeing you all at one of our wonderful events this year!
Mary Prendergast
VA-DC HFMA Chapter President
