From IT to Impact: Powering the VA Mission
Thursday, October 15, 2026
Location: LMI Building, 7940 Jones Branch Dr. Tysons, VA 22102
Join HIMSS NCA for a candid fireside chat on how technology and healthcare operations come together to serve Veterans. Our speakers will share their perspectives on what’s working, where challenges remain, and what’s next for VA health IT — from modernization and digital transformation to the realities of delivering care across the nation’s largest integrated healthcare system.
The discussion will explore how Veterans Health Administration (VHA) mission needs inform technology priorities, how the Office of Information and Technology (OIT) is enabling transformation at enterprise scale, and where stronger alignment across people, processes, data, and technology can create meaningful impact for Veterans. HIMSS NCA serves a unique community at the intersection of government, healthcare, and technology — the only Federally focused chapter in all of HIMSS globally.
Speakers will be added soon!
