2. University of Washington (UW)

2.1. HIA 420 Health Care Computer Systems and Electronic Health Records; for information contact Gretchen Murphy, RHIA gcmurphy@u.washington.edu; comments: “We have explored a couple of ways to use VistA. Students have worked with loading the software, setting up user accounts and working through a set of questions to identify the scope and functionality of VistA. Because the students in this program are trained as health information administrators, we focus on how they will use VistA to meet the basic business needs - documenting care, transferring information for care, identifying designated data sets for other information purposes, and the like. Next winter I will be teaching an adaptation of this course for the School of Nursing Clinical Informatics and Patient Centered Technology master's program.
