In this course, you will have an opportunity to explore concepts and topics related to the design and management of health information systems. This course covers cybersecurity, privacy, risk mitigation, data blocking, and the role of health information exchanges. It provides an overview of IT budgeting best practices. It also distinguish between pipeline and platform thinking in healthcare information technology and describes healthcare systems’ approaches to creating digital solutions for the future.       Visit provider's page

After an introduction to the history and current status of information systems in healthcare, you will then explore the areas of information architecture, administrative and clinical applications, information retrieval, decision support systems, the electronic health record, key health information systems and standards. Throughout this course, you will be given the opportunity to evaluate your understanding through engagement in course discussions, application of course concepts to a course assignment, and through completion of content quizzes along the way.       Visit provider's page

This Specialization is intended for health professionals, administrators, health IT staff, vendors, startups, and patients who need or want to participate in the health IT/informatics process. Throughout the five courses of this Specialization, you will learn about the social and technical context of health informatics problems, how to successfully implement health informatics interventions, how to design a health informatics solution for decision support, and how to answer a health informatics problem through data retrieval and analysis.       Visit provider's page

It introduces students to the emerging and multidisciplinary field of digital health and the role and application of digital health technologies including mobile applications, wearable technologies, health information systems, telehealth, telemedicine, machine learning, artificial intelligence and big data. These digital health technologies are assessed in terms of their opportunities and challenges to address real-world public health and health care system challenges in order to improve the quality, safety and efficiency of these services. The aim of this specialisation is to prepare learners for the new era of digitalisation in public health and health care globally.       Visit provider's [...]

Healthcare systems are changing at a rapid pace. Transformative health care delivery programs depend heavily on health information technology to improve and coordinate care, maintain patient registries, support patient engagement, develop and sustain data infrastructure necessary for multi-payer value-based payment, and enable analytical capacities to inform decision making and streamline reporting. The accelerated pace of change from new and expanding technology will continue to be a challenge for preparing a skilled workforce so taking this training will help you to stay current in the dynamic landscape of health care. This course is one of three related courses in the HI-FIVE [...]

Improving health and healthcare institutions requires understanding of data and creation of interventions at the many levels at which health IT interact and affect the institution. These levels range from the external “world” in which the institution operates down to the specific technologies. Data scientists find that, when they aim at implementing their models in practice, it is the “socio” components that are both novel to them and mission critical to success. At the end of this course, you will be able to make a quick assessment of a health informatics problem—or a proposed solution—and to determine what is missing [...]
