Technology Advisory Group (TAG)

Overview

The Technology Advisory Group (TAG) originated as a subgroup of the CIO Task Force and is a peer network of key information systems and/or technology staff from California community clinics, health centers and regional consortia. The TAG acts as a resource that provides guidance and leadership on information systems and technology projects, programs, and issues. The mission of TAG is to help California community clinics and health centers make effective use of information systems and technology.

Goals and Objectives

The TAG will support California community clinics and health centers (CCHCs) in information systems and technology statewide through the following:

  • Provide a source of information systems and technology expertise.
  • Help CCHCs find, maintain, and optimize effective information systems and technology solutions.
  • Provide an effective mechanism for collecting and disseminating information.
  • Provide a resource for project planning and a forum for addressing information systems and technology related issues, problems, and solutions.
  • Encourage and develop participation on the task force to be representative of a majority of CCHCs organizations.
  • Support recruitment and retention of professional staff at CCHCs organizations.
  • Collaborate with CPCA to deal with information systems and technology suppliers.
  • Provide outreach to CCHC organizations that have limited information systems and technology staff.
  • Encourage the development and collection of accurate data to meet organizational needs.
  • Coordinate and support other CPCA task forces and professional networks.
