Healthcare Information Technician Degree Program
================================================
Associate of Applied Science Degree – Health Information Technician
-------------------------------------------------------------------

The Health Information Technician program is designed to prepare
students for careers in a variety of healthcare settings, including
medical offices, hospitals, clinics, and skilled-care facilities. The
curriculum is structured to include didactic instruction in several
areas, including, but not limited to, health data management,
diagnostic and procedure coding, medical billing practices, healthcare
reimbursement and delivery systems, health record maintenance,
information technology, organizational resources, medical law and
ethics, medical terminology, and anatomy and physiology. The final
portion of the curriculum includes a required supervised clinical
externship at a healthcare facility. At the completion of the program,
graduates should have the knowledge and skills necessary to seek
entry-level employment in the field of health information management.
The Health Information Technician program is not programmatically
accredited. Graduates of the program are encouraged to take
certification examinations given by the American Health Information
Management Association (AHIMA) and the American Association of
Professional Coders (AAPC). These certification examinations are
voluntary but obtaining these certifications may enhance employment
opportunities. Graduates are eligible to take the Certified Coding
Associate (CCA) examination offered by AHIMA and the Certified
Professional Coder-Apprentice (CPC-Apprentice) examinations offered by
AAPC upon graduation. Graduates may apply for the official CPC
credential after completing at least two years of coding experience
after graduation as defined by AAPC. Other exams offered by these
agencies may require significant additional work experience and/or
graduation from a program accredited by AHIMA. The Health Information
Technician program is not programmatically accredited and the
program’s graduates are not eligible to apply for some other exams,
specifically the RHIA (Registered Health Information Administrator)
and RHIT (Registered Health Information Technician) examinations
offered by AHIMA. Registration and certification requirements for
taking and passing these examinations are not controlled by Brown
College but by outside agencies and are subject to change by the
agency without notice. Therefore, Brown College cannot guarantee that
graduates will be eligible to take certification exams at all or at
any specific time, regardless of their eligibility status upon
enrollment.
