HESA 361 - Health Data Management


3 Credit Hours
The purpose of this course is to provide students with the ability to define operational and strategic objectives for health services management information systems and to guide the design of systems to meet those objectives. Particular emphasis will be placed upon the conceptualization of variables to be included in such systems; the design of systems (including an understanding of the hardware, software and communication links); and the proper interpretation and utilization of processed information for program management purposes. Software for employee management will be addressed; and software for clinical data collection, storage and patient management, including the maintenance of confidentiality, will also be addressed. The exercises will emphasize the application of these concepts to practical examples that one may encounter in the health services industry.
