About Us
About AHIMA
At the American Health Information Management Association, we’re all about supporting the people who keep health information human. We work at the heart of healthcare, technology, and business to make sure patient stories are accurately told, protected, and always accessible.
You may not see us every day, but we’re working behind the scenes, ensuring that every health record is complete and secure. It's important to us because every patient’s story matters, and we believe those stories deserve the utmost care.
