PUBH 8545 Walden University Management of Health Information Systems

The creation and management of effective health information systems requires a solid understanding of data sources (structure, functionality, and management) in order to obtain and produce useful information. Choosing the source of your data helps to ensure adequate transitions from data to information to knowledge.
