Celebrating HIP Week: Accurate Information, Quality Care

Celebrating HIP Week

“Accurate Information, Quality Care,” is a fitting theme for the 2016 Health Information Professionals (HIP) week, April 3-9, 2016.  As the proliferation of health data continues to increase at exponential rates, it is more important than ever to have a laser focus on health data accuracy to help ensure quality care.

Harmony Healthcare IT appreciates Health Information Management (HIM) professionals this week and always!

Our team, the makers of Health Data Archiver, works with HIM professionals daily to manage the consolidation, security and integrity of legacy healthcare data. HIM Directors are integral players on the data governance teams of our clients and key advocates for keeping the complete patient story not only to meet medical record retention requirements but also to ensure that the full narrative is available to provide better care.  Many of our product features regarding the ease with which data is eDiscoverable and the workflows for how requests for information are fulfilled and documented have come from HIM professionals nationwide.

Harmony Healthcare IT appreciates the efforts that AHIMA is making this week to visit Capitol Hill to share the importance of advancing HIM with government leaders seeking expertise and counsel on key issues including information governance, privacy, security, fraud and abuse.
