Held in Sydney from 26–28 October 2026, HIMAA26 brings together a diverse and highly engaged community of professionals who are shaping the future of data-enabled healthcare. The conference provides a platform for collaboration, knowledge exchange and innovation across disciplines that are increasingly connected by the role of high-quality health information management.

Under the theme Connect & Collaborate – Transforming Data into Better Care, HIMAA26 highlights the critical importance of partnerships and shared expertise in improving health outcomes, strengthening systems, and enabling safer, more efficient and more equitable care.

The program showcases a broad range of perspectives, including health information management, digital health, clinical practice, research, analytics, artificial intelligence, governance, policy and education. It is designed to reflect the real-world complexity of modern healthcare and the multidisciplinary approaches required to address today’s challenges.
