Why Choose This Health Informatics Program?
Built for students who want technical health IT skills rather than an HIM credential.
Who it fits. The programming, database, and systems analysis sequence suits students aiming for analyst, EHR, or data roles, and online students anywhere pay one rate.
The trade-offs. There is no CAHIIM accreditation or RHIA route, no externship, and the program page publishes little detail.
Accreditation
Oregon Tech’s BS in Health Informatics is not CAHIIM-accredited, and Oregon Tech makes no CAHIIM claim for it.
Oregon Institute of Technology is institutionally accredited by the Northwest Commission on Colleges and Universities (NWCCU).
Graduates seeking a credential can consider HIMSS’s CAHIMS, which does not require a CAHIIM-accredited degree.
