Dear colleagues,

The Society for Health Systems of the Institute of Industrial & Systems Engineers (IISE) is sponsoring the Health Systems Track at the 2020 IISE Annual Conference & Expo. The conference is a forum for exchanging knowledge and discoveries in the industrial and systems engineering research and practitioner communities. The 2020 IISE Annual Conference & Expo will continue to integrate research and industry applications under one conference.

As track chairs of the Health Systems Track, we encourage you to contribute to the conference and track by submitting a 1 pg. extended abstract (template provided on the abstract submission website). Authors will be able to claim these works as refereed extended abstracts, which will be available on the conference website and can be cited. They will not be copyrighted or indexed in the official conference proceedings, and therefore there is no limitation on reusing extended abstract material for other purposes (e.g., toward the publication of journal papers or subsequent conference proceedings). Extended abstracts are welcome in the following areas:

Healthcare Operations Management
Medical Decision Making
Health Informatics/Data Analytics
Health Policy
Medical Imaging/Signal Analysis
Patient Care Quality and Safety
Health Economics
Lean and Six Sigma applied to Healthcare
Healthcare Workflow and Process Modeling
Health Logistics and Supply Chain

Authors of accepted abstracts will be invited to present their work in a conference session. Regular sessions will be 80 minutes and have up to four presenters. There are also opportunities to organize invited and special sessions (e.g., tutorials, panels, workshops). If you are interested in organizing an invited session or a special session, please contact the track chairs by October 15, 2019. We also encourage all presenters to submit a full-length paper for the conference proceedings. The papers should contain methods and results that are significant and have archival value to the industrial and systems engineering community. Full papers have a six-page limit and will undergo a double-blind peer review process. All accepted papers will be copyrighted and indexed in the conference proceedings via ProQuest.

Important deadlines:
Abstract submission deadline:   November 8, 2019
Notification of decision on abstract: December 5, 2019
Paper submission deadline (optional but encouraged):   January 20, 2020
Notification of decision on paper: February 24, 2020
Paper final revision submission deadline: March 13, 2020
Presenting author registration deadline: March 13, 2020

If your abstract or paper is accepted: (a) the presenting author for the paper must register for the conference by March 13, 2020 (presentations/papers without the presenting author being registered for the conference will be withdrawn from the program and the proceedings); (b) the presenting author must attend and present the paper at the conference; and (c) we ask that you be ready to serve as a reviewer for other papers in the track and follow the review deadlines.
We look forward to seeing you in New Orleans!

Best Regards,

Health Systems Track Chairs
