A National Call for White Papers

Share Your Expertise, Best Practices & Model Programs!

The National Medical Banking Institute is an exciting cross-industry educational forum for the banking and healthcare communities. At the Institute, we explore how banks are improving healthcare by reducing costs and increasing access and the quality of healthcare.

The International Journal of Medical Banking is intended to educate commerce, government and academia about medical banking principles and technologies. Submissions are peer reviewed by a panel of experts. While our first Journal, launched in 2008 at the 6th National Medical Banking Institute, was presented in print, all future editions are being placed in electronic format. Click here for our 2009 edition.

The editorial staff is seeking white papers in the following areas:

• Information privacy, confidentiality and security that focuses on cross-industry issues in banking and healthcare
• Treasury and cash management programs targeting healthcare
• Card-based platforms and technologies that link healthcare and banking platforms
• Independent Health Record Banks
• Consumer-driven healthcare technology tools that integrate with banking platforms
• Point of service technologies that enable payment “at the counter”
• Open source healthcare programs linking banking and healthcare systems
• Community coalition building, community programs & awareness

Content

The white papers should be double-spaced pages and include an abstract, list of milestones and/or deliverables if applicable and the significance of the work. Submission must be in electronic format (MS Word) and submitted to info@mbproject.org. White papers that describe a commercial product or service will not be accepted. The editorial staff is seeking white papers that address relevant industry issues.

Dissemination Venues

White papers will be evaluated for inclusion in the 2010 Institute Agenda.
