 Greetings to Prospective Health Information Technology Students: Welcome to our website and thank you for your interest in the FSU Health Information programs. If you want the business side of health care, one of the health information programs may be a good choice for you. Employment is expected to grow faster than average for health information professionals. Job prospects should be very good; technicians with a strong background in medical coding will be in particularly high demand. In health information departments, experienced administrators will be employed in supervision and management, overseeing the work of the coding, correspondence, or discharge sections. All positions within this field require proficiency with computers, careful attention to detail, and the ability to work independently. Students will use the American Health Information Management Association Virtual Lab to gain experience in using electronic health records. Please explore the various links provided to learn more about the Health Information programs. If you would like additional information about our programs, you can contact me at the link below. Paula Hagstrom, MM RHIA, Program Coordinator The Health Information Technology and the Health Information Management programs are fully accredited by CAHIIM (Commission on Accreditation Health Informatics and Information Management Education).
