Call For Papers
2024 HITS - Health Information Technology Symposium (Formerly the SIG-Health Pre-ICIS Workshop)
An AIS SIG-Health Sponsored Workshop

Date: Sunday, December 15, 2024, Bangkok, Thailand
Theme: Aging and Health Information Technology
HITS (formerly the SIG-Health Pre-ICIS Workshop) is a pre-conference activity of the International Conference on Information Systems (ICIS) hosted by the Special Interest Group Health IT (SIGHEALTH). It provides a forum for those working on information technology in the context of healthcare. We welcome both research-in-progress and completed work on a broad range of topics and methodologies. Authors do not have to be SIG-Health members to participate. Please note that the papers do not have to fit the theme, just relate to health IT in general.
The papers will not be included in conference proceedings and so authors retain all copyrights to their work. However, accepted papers will be listed with author names, affiliations, title, and brief abstract on the AIS SIG-Health website.
The workshop will include presentations and roundtable discussions. All submitted work will be reviewed by the co-chairs and other workshop authors. All accepted papers will then be presented and discussed during roundtable discussions to provide authors with help, feedback, suggestions, and to facilitate future collaborations. We will have 3-5 authors per table to facilitate discussion.  There will be a featured presentation and a recognition of the 2024 Best Paper Award awardees to all participants.  The interactive format of the workshop is geared towards providing a high degree of feedback to authors with promising early-stage work, but is certainly open to developed and completed research as well.

Please note the brief abstract and short paper format of this workshop. Manuscripts which fail to comply with the formatting requirements will likely be rejected. Do not send full-length papers. This workshop is designed to give authors of papers at many stages of development timely feedback.  Therefore, authors need to adhere to the format guidelines to facilitate a timely review process.
