Our members include more than 80,000 individuals, 480 provider organizations, 470 non-profit partners and 650 health services organizations. The HIMSS staff is made up of changemakers who collaborate with members to reform the global health ecosystem through the power of information and technology.

Amanda Burkey is a Digital Marketing & SEO Manager at HIMSS.

I have been part of HIMSS for six and a half years. In my role with search and social advertising strategy, I support our mission by increasing the accessibility of HIMSS resources.

My goal is to help the healthcare community find answers to questions, locate resources to help them do their jobs or gain the tools they need to bring change to their organization. I know my work at HIMSS makes a difference because I’ve experienced some of the struggles we can run into as patients.

I believe that the more people are able to use our resources to improve the healthcare ecosystem, the better the care experience will be for all involved.

One thing I wish people knew about my work at HIMSS is how much passion and thought goes behind every program my team creates. We all strive to provide the best possible support for everything that comes our way.
