HIMSS Priority Points

How Points are Earned 

• Every $3,000 in spend with HIMSS Global Conference (exhibit space & sponsorships), 1 point will be awarded by December 31, 2024.
• Earn additional points by completing tasks by a specified date.

General Rules

• Priority points are cumulative and carried from one participating year to the next. Failure to exhibit at consecutive HIMSS Global Conferences resets exhibitor point total to zero. If floor is sold out, wait-listed exhibitors do not lose points if unable to clear waitlist.
• Dates and ways to earn points are subject to change.
• Points may only be used by the company that holds the points. Company subsidiaries or affiliate companies may not use points that belong to another company.
• Co-Exhibitors and Complimentary Exhibitors will not earn priority points.
• Show management has the right to deduct points.

HIMSS25

• 50 points for being a Premiere Conference Supporter.
• 20 points received if 50% payment is received at booth selection for HIMSS25. Payment received no later than March 15, 2024 (applied post conference).
• 30 points received if 100% payment is received at booth selection for HIMSS25. Payment received no later than March 15, 2024 (applied post conference).

Benefits of Corporate Membership

• Diamond receive quadruple points (4x) for total spend.
• Emerald receive triple points (3x) for total spend.
• Platinum receive double points (2x) for total spend.
• Gold receive half points (1.5x) for total spend.

Mergers & Acquisitions, Company Splits:

• When companies are acquired, merged or consolidated HIMSS will use the points from the company with the greatest amount accumulated points (points cannot be combined).
• When a company splits, it is the responsibility of the companies to determine how they want the total points split between each company (Example: XYZ with 500 points splits into XYZ1 and XYZ2, XYZ needs to let HIMSS know how to split the 500 points, XYZ1 keeps 300 points and XYZ2 keeps 200 points)

What points are used for during the year:

Number of points determine time and date a company is given to choose exhibit space for the following conferences:

• HIMSS Global Health Conference & Exhibition

Number of points determine what order a company may choose their housing needs for the upcoming HIMSS Global Health Conference & Exhibition:

• Corporate Membership Level is the first order, once that is determined, companies may choose in point order. (For Example: A Diamond member with fewer points than a Gold member will be able to choose hotel before the Gold member, because of Corporate Member status)
