Area of Science:

  • Health Informatics
  • Professional Certification
  • Medical Informatics

Background:

  • AMIA identified the need for advanced health informatics certification in 2005.
  • Initial efforts focused on creating a clinical informatics subspecialty for physicians.
  • Since 2012, AMIA has worked on a broader certification for all health informatics practitioners.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe the efforts undertaken by AMIA to establish advanced health informatics certification (AHIC).
  • To report on the current status of the components required for AHIC.
  • To provide context for the proposed AHIC eligibility requirements.

Main Methods:

  • Review of AMIA's strategic initiatives and board decisions regarding advanced health informatics certification.
  • Analysis of progress on key tasks for establishing AHIC.
  • Development and endorsement of proposed eligibility requirements.

Main Results:

  • AMIA successfully established the clinical informatics subspecialty.
  • AMIA has made progress towards establishing AHIC for all health informatics practitioners.
  • The AMIA Board of Directors endorsed proposed eligibility requirements in November 2015.

Conclusions:

  • The establishment of AHIC is a significant step towards professionalizing the field of health informatics.
  • The proposed eligibility requirements represent a key milestone in the AHIC development process.
  • AHIC is expected to benefit individual practitioners, healthcare organizations, and society.
