For 45 years, IFHIMA has contributed substantially to the development of a worldwide community of health information managers.

The purpose of  IFHIMA is to provide an international forum to exchange information and best practices in the field of health information management and related areas

Because of its international scope, the main objective of IFHIMA is to stimulate the exchange of ideas among health information professionals and raise the profile of health information management worldwide.

The IFHIMA Congress, which takes place every three years in an IFHIMA member country, also provides an important opportunity for health information managers to meet personally, exchange thoughts and ideas, participate in exciting and stimulating lectures and educational forums, and create lifelong networking opportunities!
