Health Information Resources

Program Overview

Health information needs will drive health care organizations to spend more effort and money on information technology, systems and personnel. The professionals required to manage and staff these growing systems will possess increased training in both health care information and information technology. The health information manager of today and tomorrow will need to be more technically competent, understand the unique inner workings of health care organizations, and be able to define the information needs across vast integrated organizations with disparate software and hardware systems.
