CHARM is a group of professional Healthcare Risk Managers who seek to enhance the practice of risk management by providing information and education to its members.

CHARM

CHARM is a professional association of concerned Risk Managers, Industry Representatives, Sponsors, and professional, clinical participants in the Colorado area. Members and guests from surrounding states are encouraged to participate with Colorado CHARM.

CHARM is organized as many similar groups utilizing bylaws with elected executive managers including president and support staff.

CHARM has a direct association with the American Society of Healthcare Risk Managers (ASHRM).

Meetings

Meetings are held generally quarterly on the first Thursday of the month at varying locations to allow more participation. Meetings occur in the afternoon period of the day. Regular meetings consist of information dissemination of current factors or changing legislation affecting the Healthcare Risk managers.

Annually, a major training and information seminar is held for the benefit of the organization, usually a day-long event. This year the seminar will be held on May 1st at The Children's Hospital in Aurora Colorado.

Networking

Since many influential and informed persons attend CHARM, it is an excellent forum to network and meet peers. Discussions on various topics occur at the training portion with more direct networking and information-sharing occurring before and after the meeting.

Education Opportunities

At CHARM we try to present topics that are relevant or imminent to the health care risk industry. Prominent speakers are summoned to educate and give a better perception of the industry movement. Generally each speaker expounds about 90 minutes. Then interaction with Q &A sessions are held. At high level education sessions, continuing Education Credits (CEUs) are given. The entire association is beckoned to give relevant topics and those suggestions are pursued for the future education sessions.

Involvement

Anyone from the industry is welcome to join and directly participate in CHARM. As in anything, the more that you are involved with the organization the more you will get out of it. So please join and make the world a better place!
