AAMI is asking the U.S. government to recognize healthcare technology management as a professional field in its official occupational classifications, as well add “clinical engineer” and “clinical systems engineer” to its roster of job titles.

Determined to set a course for the future, two dozen clinical engineers, biomedical equipment technicians, educators, and other experts are meeting at AAMI headquarters in Arlington, VA, to take on critical issues facing the healthcare technology management (HTM) field.
