HIA Connection IUPUI

HIA Connection IUPUI HIA Connection is a student organization through the Health Information Management program at the IU School of Informatics and Computing!

Health Information Management professionals serve as a bridge between clinical, operational, and administrative functions within the healthcare industry and directly affect the quality of patient care. Widespread adoption of new technologies is fueling a critical need for specialized Health Information Management (HIM) professionals able to manage electronic health records, analyze health informat

ion and ensure the privacy and security of patient data. The HIM program incorporates medicine, management, finance, information technology, and law into one curriculum. Because of the course work diversity, HIM graduates can choose from a variety of work settings across an array of healthcare environments.

This week’s spotlight is Nicole Van Andel!

Nicole earned her bachelor’s degree in Health Information Management from IUPUI’s program and received her master’s in Adult Education. Nicole has a distinguished career in Health Information Management. Following her graduation, she began teaching for the Health Information Management program at IUPUI. She then worked at Rehabilitation Hospital of Indiana before returning to academia at IUPUI. She is essential to the success of Health Information Management students. She places students at clinical practicums, assists in the preparation for the Registered Health Information Administrator exam, and teaches upperclassmen courses. She finds teaching to be the highlight of her career and we find her to be one of the many highlights of the Health Information Management program.

Thank you Nicole!

📸Student Spotlight📸
This week's Student Spotlight is Kristen Mitchell! Kristen is from Greenwood, Indiana and is a Senior in the HIM program as well as the President of the HIA Connection board. Kristen chose to major in Health Information Management after she heard a presentation about the major during her Medical Terminology class while she was previously pursuing a Radiography degree and realized HIM was a much better fit for her. Kristen currently works as an Insurance Coordinator at Cornerstone Autism Center and plans to stay in that position after graduation this May. In the future, she would like to enter the healthcare law side of HIM.
A fun fact about Kristen is that she volunteers for an organization called Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation (RMEF), an organization that promotes hunting as a way of conservation!

This week's Student Spotlight is William Lakeman! William is from Fishers, Indiana and is a Junior in the HIM program. William chose to major in HIM because he "was interested in the broadness of the field, as well as the skill set an HIM professional has." He is most interested in consulting but would also be interested in many health information technology related positions such as data quality or database design administrator.
A fun fact about William is that he really enjoys hands-on community service and he volunteered at Alcatraz in California for over 500 hours to repair the deteriorating concrete!
