Happy Fall and Happy Halloween, South Texas Chapter! This time of year is one of the Snyder household’s favorite! College football is full effect, leaves are changing colors, warm apple cider is in the crockpot, pumpkin carving is taking place, pumpkin seeds are in the oven and of course we are taking our 17 month old (who is an owl this year) out to trick-or-treat so that mom and dad have plenty of candy for the winter ahead.
As we look back on the last three months, South Texas continues to thrive! We set a record attendance at our August Summer Institute in Austin with over 100 attendees! The day was filled with education around top healthcare finance trending topics as well as plenty of networking opportunities. Our September Women’s Forum in Edinburg and October Fall Institute in San Antonio continues to be a success along with our monthly free educational webinars. Membership is sitting at 325 members strong as we climb back to our goal of 399. Please make sure to renew your HFMA memberships at www.hfma.org/membership. As always, our chapter would like to recognize and warmly thank our sponsors that help generously support all of our programs and other various initiatives. If you haven’t already, please check out the certification investments of greater than $1,800 we have made in you regarding the CHFP and now the CRCR.
By now you should have received our Membership Satisfaction Survey which was emailed out to you around October 21st. Please take the time to provide our chapter with your feedback. Our leadership continues to work from the results of this survey in their planning for the months and year ahead. Last year marked the highest satisfaction score our chapter has received in the last five years! Hopefully this is an indicator that we hear you, and are implementing your requested change along the way. We strive to continue to be sustainable and relevant as healthcare transformation and reform still lie ahead.
I look forward to seeing everyone at the Region 9 conference in New Orleans on November 16-18. Registration is now open at www.stxhfma.org. After Region 9, we will see you January 30, 2015 at Healthcare Landscapes in San Antonio. Since our next Chili Pepper Express doesn’t get published until the end of January, I would like to wish everyone a blessed holiday season.
