Health information management

Health Information Management (HIM) is a type of job that helps keep important medical information organized. It is important for those who work in this field to know how to store and protect medical records, so that doctors, nurses, and other healthcare providers have the information they need to give the best care. People in this field have to make sure all the records are accurate and up-to-date, and that information is shared only with the people who need it. So, if you worked in HIM, you would help make sure things like your doctor's office has all the right information about your health and that this information is kept safe and secure.
