Build your skill set and gain valuable professional practice experience with SNHU's Bachelor of Science (BS) in Health Information Management degree online. This program is ideal for someone just beginning their studies in health information and for professionals wanting a structured field experience as part of their online HIM curriculum.

“Health information management is the information hub for all patient data,” said Darla Branda, clinical faculty of health professions at SNHU. “They house all of the information from the lab, surgery, insurance companies, registries and more.”

Through specialized studies and a professional practice experience (PPE), you'll learn the technology, terminology and professional skills required for a career in health information management. You'll also receive valuable exposure to a professional healthcare setting, helping position you for success in a competitive field.

The bachelor's in health information management program is accredited by the Commission on Accreditation for Health Informatics and Information Management Education (CAHIIM).

As a CAHIIM-accredited program, our curriculum is built to prepare you for real-world success. “CAHIIM really sets the bar for academic programs in health information management,” said Lynn Ward, associate dean of health professions at SNHU.

In addition to helping you develop practical skills and experiences employers want to see, the program also meets eligibility requirements to sit for the Registered Health Information Administrator (RHIA) credential exam - which can help you open up even more opportunities for advancement.

Throughout the program, you'll learn how to:

• Apply health data structure, standards and regulations to manage clinical classification systems and reimbursement
• Analyze the uses, risks and management of health statistics and biomedical research data and support performance improvement programs
• Interpret and apply current laws regulations, policies and healthcare ethics as they relate to decision-making in healthcare delivery and systems

• Evaluate information system applications for their capacity to meet the needs of healthcare organizations
• Use current management principles to propose solutions and develop project management plans that solve organizational challenges

Career Outlook

The increased use of data to produce better treatment and patient outcomes has created strong opportunities for employment in health information management. In addition, recent federal regulations requiring healthcare organizations to utilize secure electronic health records seem to be stimulating job growth for years to come.
