What is the AHIMA House of Delegates? The AHIMA House of Delegates is the national member voice of our profession, and is a a deliberative body made up of elected delegates from every state's Component Association (like HHIA) and the AHIMA Board of Directors, first established in 1946. Delegates serve as advocates for HIM professionals nationwide, helping shape the standards, policies, and strategic direction that keep our field strong and forward-thinking. It's one of the most meaningful ways a HIM professional can extend their impact beyond their own organization and into the future of the entire profession.
