Health Information Management and Informatics Core Competencies for Individuals Working with Electronic Health Records

The AHIMA/AMIA work force matrix tool displays the basic competencies suggested for those in the healthcare work force who must use health IT and electronic health records to perform their job as "users". To use the matrix tool, select a "role category" filter which will sort for the suggested competencies and learning levels that relate to each healthcare worker in their role as a "user" of information technology. The matrix tool can be used as a guide for job descriptions, orientation, and in-service training content areas.
