The Complete Healthcare Information Technology Reference and Exam Guide

Gain the skills and knowledge required to implement and support healthcare IT (HIT) systems in various clinical and healthcare business settings. Health Information Technology Exam Guide for CHTS and CAHIMS Certifications prepares IT professionals to transition into HIT with coverage of topics ranging from health data standards to project management. This new edition includes broadened security content in addition to coverage of disruptive innovations such as complex platforms that support big data, genomics, telemedicine, mobile devices, and consumers. Learn about achieving true interoperability, updates to HIPAA rules, and FHIR and SMART standards.

“This book is an invaluable reference for understanding what has come before and what trends are likely to shape the future. The world of big data, precision medicine, genomics, and telehealth require us to break old paradigms of architecture and functionality while not interrupting existing care processes and revenue cycles… We’re dealing with state sponsored cyberterrorism, hacktivism, and organized crime. I describe healthcare IT security as a cold war… You’ll hear from the experts who created many of the regulations and best practices we’re using today to keep information private. I hope you enjoy this book as much as I have and that it finds a place of importance on your book shelf.”
