Abstract:
We have developed model Health Informatics (HI) curricula for the education of three categories of professionals: Applied Health Informaticians, the professionals that deploy information technologies, Research and Development Health Informaticians those that develop new concepts, techniques, and solutions, and what we have called Clinician Health Informaticians, providers who use HI capabilities to support their professional work. The curricula specify the competencies that each type of professional must acquire.
