EHR

= Welcome to the Electronic Health Record Course =  According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, employment of Health Information Technicians is projected to grow much faster than the average occupation in coming years, with an expected 20% increase through 2018. This course will examine the widespread use of electronic health records (EHR) as medical practices transition away from paper-based systems. Students will explore the fundamental demand for diagnostic tests, medical treatment and procedures; a result of the aging baby boomer population.

Take this course and learn the practical applications of the Electronic Health Record in the Physician’s Office and our role in this ever-changing and growing occupation and gain powerful job skills.  __Note from Instructor__: Here is the textbook information for this course:
