Subject: RE: [ihc] Sorry I missed yesterday's meeting-Note for October
Dear Rex, This is quite interesting. It would be useful to strategize about how this should be included into the HIT Strategic Plan for HHS. Also we would be interested in participating in the NSF conference. Preparedness money seems to be going away at HHS. If you have any thoughts regarding the correct strategy for disaster response this might be another good topic for discussion. With warm regards, Peter Peter L.
