Health Informatics and HIM Bachelor’s Degree Programs

A bachelor’s degree is the entry point for two related careers. Health information management (HIM) degrees prepare students for coding, compliance, privacy, and records leadership, and CAHIIM-accredited HIM programs qualify graduates for the Registered Health Information Administrator (RHIA) exam. Health informatics and health data degrees focus more on systems, databases, analytics, and IT.

The directory below lists the bachelor’s programs we have verified from each school’s official sources. Filter by state, program type, online availability, or CAHIIM accreditation. Schools with a full profile on this site link to it.

How to Read the Table

  • Type: HIM programs center on coding, reimbursement, compliance, and HIM management. Health Informatics programs center on systems, networks, databases, and analytics. Health Data programs blend data science with health science.
  • CAHIIM: The Commission on Accreditation for Health Informatics and Information Management Education accredits HIM and health informatics programs. “Candidacy” means a program has applied but is not yet accredited.
  • RHIA eligible: Graduates of CAHIIM-accredited HIM bachelor’s programs can sit for AHIMA’s RHIA exam. Graduates of non-accredited or informatics-only programs generally cannot.
  • Completion programs: Some programs are built for students who already hold an associate degree or the RHIT credential, so most credits come from transfer.

Choosing a Health Informatics or HIM Bachelor’s

Start With the Career You Want

If you want to manage health records, coding, or compliance, choose a CAHIIM-accredited HIM program so you can earn the RHIA. If you want to work on health IT systems, networks, or data, an informatics or data degree may fit better, but it will not lead to the RHIA.

Compare Professional Practice

HIM programs require supervised professional practice, but the amount varies widely, from short virtual activities to full-time placements of several weeks. More hours mean more experience before graduation, and sometimes travel or time away from work.

Check How Online Pricing Works

Many online programs charge the same rate in every state, and some offer discounts to out-of-state online students. Competency-based programs charge a flat rate per term, so faster students pay less.
