This program prepares students with the necessary skills and academic knowledge for entry-level or management training positions in health information management. These positions require a general understanding of business principles, a thorough understanding of the content of medical records, as well as extensive training in anatomy, physiology, disease processes, and medical terminology.
The program provides the student with the knowledge and understanding to manage medical records systems and personnel engaged in the analysis of medical records and the assignment of codes to classify diagnoses and procedures.
