The health information technician is a member of the health care team assuring that documentation is consistent with professional standards and licensure requirements. To accomplish this, health information technicians monitor and track information recorded in a patient's medical record which includes the medical history, physical examination, progress notes reflecting treatment, and laboratory and radiology reports. Interacting with physicians, administrators, nurses and other allied health professionals, the health information technician quantifies, manages, and interprets the health record data that becomes the basis for crucial medical and financial decisions. The health information technician functions as the patient advocate in protecting the confidentiality of sensitive health care information recorded in the medical record.
