What You Should Know:
– A new survey conducted by AHIMA reveals that 66% of health information (HI) professionals have experienced ongoing staffing shortages in their workplaces over the past two years. These shortages were notably prevalent in areas such as data quality, consumer health information, revenue cycle management, privacy, risk, and compliance, and data analytics.
– The report, “Health Information Workforce: Survey Results on Workforce Challenges and the Role of Emerging Technologies” also finds that despite workforce shortages, HI professionals see promise in artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) technologies for alleviating some of the workforce burdens. However, this increased reliance on AI and ML also calls for upskilling within the profession.
