Access to health information is changing the way doctors care for patients. Doctors now have access to a patient’s medical history, surgeries, allergies to medicines, and recent doctor’s visits all at the press of a button. This integration of technology and health information is known as an electronic health record.

The Health Information Technology course at Tiffin University provides a foundation of health information concepts and prepares learners to support health information technology systems used to store, share, and analyze health information in the healthcare environment. Areas of health information technology include the electronic health record, personal health records, electronic prescribing, and the privacy and security requirements for these electronic systems.
