2010 Editorial Calendar and Industry Events

News is unpredictable... which is why last-minute reporting is front-and-center at Healthcare IT News. The core of our publication is coverage of news in four sections: Hospitals & IDNs, Physicians & Ambulatory Care, Payers and Vendors. In order to delve deeper into specific areas of interest, we pre-plan some topic areas to cover through research and investigative reporting. This editorial calendar shows these topic areas, and the months in which they’ll be covered, as well as important industry events.
