Course Description:
'' This twelve-month, 56-credit post-baccalaureate certificate program is for individuals seeking to work with health informatics and health information management, health data systems, and emerging electronic health record systems in health care. A post-baccalaureate program indicates that it is for those persons who have obtained a bachelor’s degree or higher from an accredited institution of higher education. Courses cover health care delivery systems, national health information technology initiatives, clinical processes, legal, regulatory and compliance issues, finance and revenue cycle management, and management of patient health information in multiple settings.
A key focus is the use of technology in the collection and use of personal health data. Many facets of privacy and security of health information are embedded in several courses throughout the program. Students learn about clinical data systems, systems analysis, leadership skills, diagnostic coding and vocabularies, performance improvement and preventing errors in the health care environment, and how health data supports research and public health. Certificate recipients are eligible to take the American Health Information Management (AHIMA) national certifying examination.
Participants in this program develop skills to:
Relate patient data, health information and clinical systems to care management
Manage paper and electronic health record systems and information business processes in health care organizations - hospitals, ambulatory care, long-term care, and research and advocacy settings
Work with industry partners on policy initiatives for advancing health information standards and technology development

While this program is designed to be completed in one academic year, some students choose to complete the program over a period of two years. One- and two-year certificate program tracks are available. Applicants are asked to specify in their application the program track they wish to pursue. Students who wish to complete all HIHIM courses in one year should plan a four-evening (Monday-Thursday) schedule.
