The full, unabidged slides from last week's meeting can be viewed here.

Notes for members who follow the schedule

Announcements from the organization travel through a few channels: the calendar page, officer emails, and the handouts passed around at lunch meetings. When a room changes or a deadline moves, the calendar is corrected first, so it is worth a look before walking to BLB 209 for a noon talk.

Materials after a presentation

The full slides from the Healthcare Payment Systems meeting stayed online after the talk, so members who missed the session could read them at their own pace. Compliance decks tend to be dense, and having the deck in hand makes the follow-up questions easier to frame.

Outside conferences

The HIPAA breakfast conference hosted by Epstein Becker Green was free for University of Houston students, but seats needed an RSVP to Tim Dyer by the posted Friday deadline. Firm-hosted briefings fill quickly, so reply as soon as a notice appears in the calendar.

Reading on a handset

Some members open the calendar on a phone between classes. The page at magnum888 sets out the Android APK and iOS web app for that kind of mobile reading; it is a 21+ product run outside the organization, and the HLO calendar stays the record for our own events.

Team rides

The Moonlight Bicycle Ramble drew several HLO teams, at $20 per person for a team of four and $25 for an individual outside a team with a t-shirt. Registration closed on the 26th, which is why officers asked for rosters to be settled well before then.
