Former HHS Secretary Kathleen Sebelius Announced as an ONC Annual Meeting Featured Speaker
From April 2009 through June 2014, Sebelius served in President Barack Obama’s Cabinet as the 21st Secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), leading the effort to pass and implement the Affordable Care Act. In addition, Sebelius oversaw the execution of the HITECH Act – which codified the Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology (ONC) into statute and accelerated the adoption of health IT across the nation. As CEO of Sebelius Resources LLC, she provides strategic advice to private companies, non-profit organizations, higher education institutions, and financial investors.
The Annual Meeting is an opportunity for a wide array of public and private sector partners to discuss ways to leverage health IT to achieve better care, smarter spending, and healthier people.
