The American Health Information Management Association’s (AHIMA) HIM Reimagined initiative has projected impact to the future of the HIM field as a result of technology driven changes in the management of healthcare information and data. It aims to prepare HIM professionals for the future including by anticipating shifts in roles and responsibilities due to evolving technology.
This research project explores the realities of readiness for the shift among current HIM professionals from paper-based roles to electronic systems and workflow. Results will help determine whether HIM professionals are prepared for or may already be participating in changing roles and will assist in identifying opportunities to target populations that may need assistance in preparing for the changes to technology driven roles.
Please consider participating!
