Join us for this very special LOINC event
LOINCers from around the globe will participate in this conference dedicated to the LOINC standard. Each day, the conference will feature informative presentations by members of the LOINC team and the LOINC user community. In addition, there will be a combined Laboratory and Clinical Committee meeting on March 9, as well as individual Laboratory and Committee meetings on March 12.
Jam-packed schedule
This event is even bigger than the last LOINC Conference in October 2020. We have added four additional presentations to the schedule—a combined total of 19 engaging talks. Each session allows ample time for your questions and feedback.
Tremendous learning opportunity
The push for health data interoperability is coming from many directions, and LOINC plays an essential role. At this event you’ll learn what’s necessary to implement LOINC into your systems.
Access to all presentation resources after the event
Learning doesn't stop at the conclusion of the conference. As a paid attendee, you will have access to slides and recordings for all presentations. That way you can catch any of the sessions you may have missed. Please allow two weeks for resources to be processed and made available.
