The American Health Information Management Association (AHIMA) defines Health information management (HIM) as “the practice of gathering, analyzing and securing all forms of important medical information that helps provide quality patient care. This specialization stretches across business, science and information technology.”
The HIM program is designed to equip students with the tools, knowledge and skills needed to succeed in advanced healthcare and leadership roles. UC’s online program includes core healthcare competencies, advanced coursework and a required professional practicum – all of which provide students with a well-rounded, relevant education and valuable industry experience.
Key Benefits of UC Online’s HIM Program:
““I was struggling to find a degree program that would allow me to attend school and still maintain a full-time job. After researching several programs, I chose UC Online because it’s CAHIIM Accredited and offers degrees in both Health Information Systems (HIS) and Health Information Management (HIM). After successfully completing both of these programs, I can say without a doubt, that UC Online is the real deal! The Professors are amazing, the programs offer real-world experience, and the classes can be scheduled in a way that’s best for you. After graduating with my Associate’s in HIS, I received my RHIT credentials and landed my first medical coding job at a company I had always wanted to work for. I went on to complete my Bachelor’s in HIM, which opened even more doors for me, not only with my current employer, but with companies all over the U.S.! UC Online far exceeded my expectations. Although I live all the way in New Mexico, I’ve built professional relationships that I will maintain for the rest of my life!””
