Small Gathering of CE Leaders Turns into Popular Two-Decade-Old Event

摘要

Boston—In 1985, about a dozen clinical engineering leaders gathered at Massachusetts General Hospital to discuss measuring and managing productivity and other business aspects of in-house programs. They never imagined that the gathering would become an annual event— one that would grow in size each year— but that's exactly what has happened. In June, the group celebrated its 20th anniversary back in Boston—and happily—at an affiliated site of Massachusetts General Hospital. Officially, the meeting is called the "Annual Conference on Clinical Engineering Productivity and Cost Effectiveness," an A AMI Subcommittee on Technology Management. But almost everyone just calls the event, "Manny's Meeting."
