HiMSS - Oregon Chapter presents: "Countdown to Meltdown? Preparing Your Organization for Health Reform & the Brave New Healthcare World"
Roll back
| description |
HiMSS Oregon http://www.himss-oregon.org/ welcomes â J.D. Kleinke a pioneering health care information entrepreneur, medical economist, author, policy expert, and business strategist.
WHEN: Thursday, March 14th, 2013 from 5:00pm-8:30pm
5:00-6:00 â Registration and Networking
6:00-7:30 â Presentation**
7:30-8:30 â Networking Reception
WHERE: The Nines Hotel, 525 SW Morrison, Portland, Oregon 97204
DETAILS:
What does the actual health reform plan look like, what happens when 30 million new people enter the âsystemâ as we know it, and what will it all mean for your organization? âObamacareâ has survived the Supreme Court, but the health reform law itself may be overshadowed by larger shifts in market power - and continuing government budget crises, as lawmakers target Medicare and Medicaid as sources of major savings. This session provides a critical overview of where health care stands today; the latest on spending trends and market dynamics; and how the health reform plan will play out for all major stakeholders, including providers, payers, employers, patients and consumers. This session examines the concurrent effects of the reform plan, health insurance market upheavals, increasing patient economic empowerment, and emerging information technologies on todayâs health care organization. And it lays out a practical framework and set of critical success factors for your organization going forward, as health care faces the greatest challenges and changes in our lifetimes.
J.D.Kleinke has been instrumental in the creation of four health care information organizations, most notably HealthGrades. He has helped hospital systems, insurers and physician groups prepare for medical computerization and health reform; provided business, product and technology strategy services to new and established health care companies; and sat on the Boards of several public and privately held health information companies. In 2012, he was a Resident Fellow of the American Enterprise Institute. Mr. Kleinke has authored three books on the U.S. health care system, Bleeding Edge: The Business of Health Care in the New Century and Oxymorons: The Myth of a U.S. Health Care System, and Catching Babies (2011). His work has appeared in The Wall Street Journal, New York Times, Barronâs, Health Affairs, JAMA, the British Medical Journal, Modern Healthcare, Managed Healthcare, Forbes, and numerous other publications. Since his earliest writings on health policy and market dynamics in The Wall Street Journal in the early 1990s, Mr. Kleinke has long been known as a forceful, non-partisan advocate for an evidence-driven, computerized, patient-centric health care system.
**This program has been submitted for review and approval of continuing education (CE) hours for use in fulfilling the continuing education requirements of the Certified Professional in Healthcare Information and Management Systems (CPHMS)
Registration is now open for the conference. https://secure100.telusys.net/gregistration-bin/display2_preview?&ctid=1696121847441156&rfid=9659143976368037&tmid=136

The Lean Entrepreneur Book Tour - Portland
Roll back
| description |
Are you a Visionary?
Come enjoy food and drink, while hearing what Brant Patrick have to say about your visionary status.
Brant and Patrick will discuss their new book, The Lean Entrepreneur: how you can use customer interaction, purpose-built experiments and actionable data to become a visionary.
Â
They break it down unlike anyone else. Their talk is not to be missed!
Â
Tickets are FREE for all book holders. Bring a book, get in free. (Brant or Patrick will sign it, too!)
If you don't have the book, buy the book on Amazon or your local bookseller, and then bring your proof of purchase to the event.  (Early Adopters just need their name - you know who you are.)
Â
******
Here's what influencers are saying about The Lean Entrepreneur:
Â
"The Lean Startup methodology has become a fundamentally critical approach to creating and building a startup. Brant and Patrick explain in a very accessible way, with extended case studies from a variety of exciting, contemporary startups, with awesome bonus illustrations from everyone's favorite robotic dinosaur, Fake Grimlock. If you are a startup entrepreneur, this is a must-read book for your startup journey."
âBrad Feld, Managing Director, Foundry Group; co-founder, TechStars; and creator of the Startup Revolution series of books
"If you're an entrepreneur, making stupid mistakes is inevitable. The Lean methodology will help you cut down on them drastically. Do yourself a favor and pick up The Lean Entrepreneur. It will make your journey into the unknown much, much smoother."âJulien Smith, New York Times bestselling co-author of Trust Agents
"This fascinating new book shows that at the intersection of disruption and lean company thinking, there is a new world of: lean entrepreneurshipâempowered individuals who bring the world kicking and screaming into the future. I can't wait."âPaul Kedrosky
"The Lean Entrepreneur cruises at 50,000 feet with a view of the context we are operating in today's economy. At the same time, it dives deep into key ways the new startup tools, frameworks, and mechanisms can be leveraged to take advantage of a world filled with uncertainty and opportunity."âScott Case, CEO, Startup America Partnership

Remember, get in free when you buy the book on Amazon or your local bookseller, and then bring your proof of purchase to the event.Â

Using Internet and Smartphone Tools to Engage & Support Volunteers
Roll back
| description |
<p><span>Thanks to the Internet and handheld computers like smart phones, it's never been easier for nonprofits, schools, libraries, government programs and other mission-based initiatives to keep volunteers feeling supported, informed and valued. But how do you communicate all you need to without overwhelming volunteers? How do you appeal to the many different communications styles among volunteers? How do you keep your messages from being drowned out from the growing volume of online "noise" and landslide of information and Internet memes? And how do you integrate online communications with your many different other priorities? This lively discussion will explore all this and more!</span></p>
<p><span>Stop by for discussion, networking with the nonprofit tech crowd and refreshments!</span></p>
<p> </p>
<p><span style="font-size: large;"><strong>About the presenter</strong></span></p>

She has been quoted in articles in</span> <em>The New York Times</em><span>,</span> <em>The Wall Street Journal</em> <span>and the Associated Press, as well as for reports by CNN, Deutsche Well, the BBC, and various local radio and TV stations. Resources from her web site,</span> <a href="http://www.coyotecommunications.com/">coyotecommunications.com</a><span>, are frequently cited in reports and articles by a variety of organizations, online and in-print. She is currently based near Portland, Oregon in the USA.</span></p>

<p> </p>
<p><span style="font-size: large;"><strong>What you'll get out of PDXTech4Good events</strong></span></p>
<ul>
<li>
<strong>Nonprofit staffers</strong> will find a friendly, welcoming atmosphere for those not experienced with technology, and many chances to ask questions of tech-experienced nonprofits and experts.</li>
<li>
<strong>Techies</strong> will find opportunities to hear the real-world stories of nonprofit clients, and put their own expertise to social good as well as the potential for lasting relationships (be they paid or volunteer) with leading organizations in our community.</li>
<li>
<strong>Activists and community organizers</strong> will see and be given the chance to present on successful uses of technology for social change. We'll explore how technology can help support activism and where activism can push it forward.</li>

A One Day Immersion in Improvisation for fun, self knowledge
and self confidence
Play with Collaboration~Creativity~Flexibiltiy
This is an opportunity to embody and engage with the qualities of
flexibility, collaboration and creativity.
Supported by the warmth of personal story and the guidance that
Playback Theatre provides, we will navigate and learn from four
agreements of Improvisation. (âEverythingâs An Offerâ-Robert Poynton)
LET GO! Of having to be right, of trying to be clever, of prejudgments,
BE AFFECTED!
NOTICE MORE! Lean into your senses, commit, BE PRESENT!
USE EVERYTHING! Connect ideas, accept offers, say and do obvious
things. YES AND!
MAKE YOUR PARTNER LOOK GOOD! Take care of each other. BE
GENEROUS!
Cat Gilliam is warm and playful; she is a force of inspiration. As an improvisationalist, she makes everything an offer, models letting go and gently takes us to our edge and beyond. Sheâs been a social artist-activist with Playback Theatre since 1992; since 2003, she is pioneering an integration of NVC into Playback practices. She falls in love with everyone and your next!
APRIL 28 10-4 $50

Free and open to the public
The Red Lion charges the OCCA for using their ballroom. Please help us defray this cost by buying food and beverages.
Meetings are held on the last Tuesday of the month (except December).
RSVP: meetup.com/itpro-70
Agenda:
6:00--6:20 Networking
6:20--7:00 No-host dinner
7:00--7:30 Introductions and announcements
7:30--8:30 Main Presentation (followed by Q&A):
Easy and Inexpensive Screencasting
Screencasting can help you clearly explain concepts to your clients as well as give you instant credibility. But, screencasting programs can be expensive and complex. However, all of us do not always need to create professional quality videos. Sometimes we just need to quickly and clearly convey some information and video is the best way to do so.
Rich will present a guide to inexpensive tools for screencasting which make the process pretty easy and will enable you to create clear instructive videos in little time and at low cost.
Some topics he'll cover are:
Why Video?
What hardware is needed?
Capturing video and capturing images
Sharing with Jing and sharing with Snagit
When is Jing better?
When is Snagit better?
Going beyond the simple tools
Presented by
Rich Wersinger founded RJW Consulting in 1998, and formed as RJW Consulting, LLC in July 2010. In 2007, Rich expanded his services to include screencast videos.
Rich has been helping professionals expand their horizons and realize potential they never thought possible since he was a scout in his teens. His first professional assignment in 1982-1984 was training Royal Saudi Naval Forces officers how to manage the day-to-day activities aboard their small naval vessels. Since then, he has discovered the challenges and successes helping professionals use software applications effectively

SQAUG
Presents:
Murky Waters: Where Do Tests Come From?
A discussion about requirements, and other
sources for the development of test cases
Moderated by:
Mary Torres
Lead QA Engineer,
Viewpoint Construction Software, Portland, OR
at
Con-Way
2055 NW Savier, Portland, OR 97209
on
Wednesday April 17, 2013
5:30pm until 7:30pm
Where do tests come from? Pittsburg. No not really. Actually, we hope to discuss the various sources for tests in the different SDLC environments. We want everyone to share good practices for gleaning information needed for testing, including; rummaging through requirements, user stories, acceptance criteria, code commentary, etc. Do your Product Managers write up test cases, DEV’s? Business Analysts? Tech facilitators? Remember Use Cases? Much of what we used to do, has become muddled and wrapped up in terminology and processes that no longer mean the same things they used to. Let’s talk it through and see if we can help each other in this murky water.
Mary Torres; our moderator for this event currently works at Viewpoint Construction Software as Lead QA Engineer. She a degree in Computer Science, has almost 17 years working in the software industry, and has worked in QA for that entire time. Her work experience includes QA management, automated testing, and functional testing. She is also a certified scrum master. Mary has worked on projects that have utilized traditional Waterfall and Agile/Scrum SDLC’s.
Event is FREE and Open to the Public
Agenda:
5:30-6:00PM: Pizza, Networking and SQAUG Announcements
6:00-7:30PM: Scheduled Moderator: Mary Torres
Details:
• Event is Free to the public
• Onsite parking (directions below)
• Light dinner and beverages will be served
• No RSVP is required to attend
SQAUG is Portland/Vancouver area’s only Software Quality Assurance User Group! We are NEW, and would like to extend a warm welcome to everyone who would like to participate in a user group dedicated to growing the Quality Assurance field.

Rose City SPIN: How Can I Automate Stuff?
Roll back
| description |
Networking @ 5:30-6:30 PM; Seminar 6:30-7:30 PM
Abstract:
Automated testing in a hot topic right now in the QA space. But how do you get started in it? One step at a time. This talk is aimed at the beginner and hopes to provide some background in how to start to learn how to automate stuff. Stuff that can make your day to day job easier. Even if you think you donât have any automation experience, you probably actually have something that you can build on. Iâll give you one path as a guide, but ultimately it will be up to you to complete the journey.
