The KC HEALTH Communicators Board (KCHC) is excited to roll out its new name and look. Formerly the Kansas City Healthcare Communicators Society (KCHCS), KC HEALTH Communicators is dedicated to assisting those who work in or have an interest in the health care marketing and communications field to continue their professional development by increasing their understanding of the industry and their role in it.
In today's highly competitive and fast-changing health care world, KCHC provides members with a unique opportunity to collaborate with their peers throughout the Greater Kansas City area.
Benefits include educational programs that are offered to members through luncheon or breakfast meetings, as well as at an annual fall conference. While topics often focus on the communicator's role in a changing health care industry, programs also include general marketing and communications topics. In addition, KCHC offers unique networking opportunities through social activities.
