Our Health Information Coordinators (HICs) are integral members of our PMH team, supporting members remotely using EMR systems and digital health platforms.

All our PCN’s HICs:

  • Have completed their Health Information Management Diploma
  • Are certified with the Canadian Health Information Management Association

This training and their work support members by:

  • Using panel data and their knowledge of Alberta Prevention and Screening (AsaP) guidelines to recommend and facilitate screening projects
  • Helping ensure patients receive necessary screenings at the appropriate times — catching chronic and dangerous conditions early

To find out more about our HICs during Health Information Professionals Week (Oct. 21 – 25), consider reviewing their role profile in our Programs & Services Guide.
