The Health Information Technology Program is accredited by the Commission on Accreditation of Health Informatics and Information Management Education (CAHIIM). CAHIIM is the accrediting organization for degree-granting programs in health informatics and information management. CAHIIM serves the public interest by establishing quality standards for the educational preparation of future health information management (HIM) professionals. When a program is accredited by CAHIIM, it means that is have voluntarily undergone a rigorous review process and has been determined to meet or exceed the standards set by the sponsoring professional organization-the American Health Information Management Association (AHIMA)-in cooperation with the Commission. CAHIIM accreditation is a way to recognize and publicize best practices for HIM Education Programs.
