HC 6400 - Health Information Technology

(2)

This course reviews the past, current and future status of health information technology and health information exchange in Kansas, Missouri and across the nation. It explores how health information technology and health information exchange provide vital support to health care organizations, local communities, regions, states and the nation in improving health care quality and reducing health care costs. This course will take an in-depth look at health care reform and the role that health information technology will play in Kansas in the implementation of KanCare, Meaningful Use Stage 1 & 2 and across the nation in payment reform initiatives. Students will be expected to have a broad knowledge of health care policy, ACA, HIPAA, local and state health care initiatives and apply this knowledge in solving real health care problems that are confronting local, state and federal leaders.
