This series of courses begins with an introduction to the US health care delivery system.
In the US, its many systemic challenges and past efforts to develop and implement computing tools to help overcome those problems.
It goes on to discuss health informatics from a historical perspective, its current state, and its likely future state Now that electronic health record systems are widely deployed, the HL7 FHIR (Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources) standard is rapidly becoming accepted as the means to access and share data stored in those systems, and analytics are increasingly being used to support clinical research using that aggregated data.
It then turns to FHIR's impact on health care transformation with a focus on some of the important and evolving areas of informatics, including health information exchange, population health, public health, mHealth, and big data and analysis.
Use cases and case studies are used in all of these discussions to help students connect technologies to real-world challenges.
