President's Message - September 2007

Greetings,

As we reach mid-September, I realize we are only a few weeks away from the InSight 2007 Annual Conference, taking place October 17-20, in Atlanta, Georgia.

Thanks to those of you who have already secured your participation at conference. I look forward to meeting and exchanging ideas with you. I hope those of you who have not yet registered take advantage of this opportunity. With more than 300 educational sessions, over 100 products in the Product Solution Center, along with informal and formal networking events, this year’s conference is primed to be a great experience for everyone.

I want to thank the Conference Planning Committee for building such an enormous event. Their dedication and preparation in planning the InSight 2007 Annual Conference will pay great dividends. This team has worked diligently on designing educational programming that speaks to the greater McKesson customer community in a format that lends itself for peer exchange and networking. I’m proud of their accomplishments and look forward to making the most out of their successes.

I also want to thank the CIO Task Force for their hard work in creating the CIO Forum, an event specially tailored to CIOs attending this year’s conference. While some education tends to be more technical, the CIO Forum is designed by CIOs, for CIOs and combines true best practices from peers that have applied, or are about to apply, strategies within their own environments. It also brings McKesson top leaders into the fold so that attendees stay current and tapped into the direction of McKesson. I have no doubt that this forum will be a success.

Finally, I want to encourage all of you to register today if you haven’t already. This year’s event attendance is tracking ahead, with both seasoned conference participants and new attendees like RelayHealth and Per Se customers, so it’s truly an event you won’t want to miss.

I look forward to seeing you in Atlanta.

All the best,

Deborah Gash
2007 InSight President
