Medical Records

Medical Records are systematic documentation of a patient's health history and care across time within one or more healthcare provider settings. Coursera's Medical Records catalogue teaches you how to efficiently manage, process and maintain medical records in compliance with legal, ethical, and regulatory requirements. You'll learn about the different types of health records, including electronic health records (EHR), the principles of health information management, medical coding and billing, health data standards, privacy and security measures in healthcare, and the vital role these records play in healthcare delivery. This skill is essential for health information managers, medical coders, healthcare administrators, and anyone interested in the efficient management of health information.
