While 2016 has already proven to be a big year for health IT policy, policymakers have indicated more action is to come:

• New physician payment systems are moving from proposal to reality – what are the health IT ramifications?
• Ransomware, breaches and medical device security have the attention of Congress and the Administration alike –
  understand proposals and key players in the cybersecurity conversation.
• Meaningful Use changes have been proposed – what do lawmakers think of the program and what might the program
  look like in 2017?
• Concerns about interoperability still dominate Congressional agendas in the House and Senate – what legislation is in
  play? What initiatives are underway at ONC?
