·         Three Directors for the Board of Directors,

·         Two Commissioners on the Commission on Certification for Health Informatics and Information Management (CCHIIM); and

·         One Speaker-elect for the House of Delegates

 

The President/Chair-elect, Director, and CCHIIM Commissioner positions have three-year terms and the Speaker-elect has a two-year term.  All AHIMA national volunteer terms begin on January 1, 2017. 

 

Descriptions, duties, and qualifications for each of these elected positions are available to view below, as well as on the AHIMA Application to Serve Web page. It’s easy to apply and/or nominate via the Application to Serve Web page. Once on the Application to Serve web page, just click on the “Elected Positions” tab then click on the nominate or complete application link at the bottom of the “elected positions” web page. Nominations for these positions are due March 31, 2016.
