6Health IT Workforce Curriculum Version 3.0/Spring 2012

Health Management Information Systems What is Health Informatics?

Lecture a

• The science of information– Information = data with meaning

• Definition based on– Data– Information– Knowledge

Data, Information, Knowledge, Wisdom Hierarchy

• Data– Symbols, facts, measurements

• Information– Data processed to be useful– Provides the “who, what, when, where”

• Knowledge – Application of data and information– Provides the “how”

• Wisdom – Evaluated understanding– Provides the “why”

Biomedical Informatics

• AMIA– “Biomedical informatics (BMI) is the interdisciplinary field that

studies and pursues the effective uses of biomedical data, information, and knowledge for scientific inquiry, problem solving, and decision making, motivated by efforts to improve human health.”

• Shortliffe and Blois– “The scientific field that deals with biomedical information, data,

and knowledge – their storage, retrieval, and optimal use for problem solving and decision making.”
