The First HIM Leadership Summit is the first stop on a road show that leads to the SHIMA Annual Conference in November 2027, and again in November 2028 — both in Jeddah. Each event builds on the last: the Summit sets the national agenda, and the Annual Conference takes it into practice.

Health information management, Value-Based Healthcare, the social determinants of health, and Activity-Based Funding and Management are usually discussed separately. The Summit treats them as one chain, and spends three days following it end to end.
the record is produced
the data that explains the outcome
the funding mechanism
the destination
The chain is circular by design. VBHC measures outcomes; outcomes depend on social circumstances; the record is where both are captured. Close the loop and the funding follows the outcome rather than the activity.
Three days. 28 sessions. One argument.
