Working with patients in a hospital, doctor's office, or any medical facility involves recording and storing massive amounts of information. Information from insurance to details about the patient's health history are stored. Recent laws such as HIPAA now require additional security in the ways in which this information is stored. Serious legal ramifications can result in faulty storage methods for personal information. The Health Information Management Bachelor's Degree teaches students the methods of managing this huge amount of data and doing so properly, ethically, and legally.
