AAMI is seeking applications for membership on the association’s Technology Management Council (TMC) and Healthcare Technology Leadership Committee (HTLC), two groups dedicated to ensuring a bright future for the HTM field. During their three-year terms, TMC and HTLC members HTM participate in quarterly calls, join an AAMI subcommittee, give a yearly presentation promoting careers in HTM, and contribute to an AAMI publication.
