As a nurse in a leadership role, the mandated changes in health records are a challenge to navigate an organization through. In order to best position not only yourself, but also your organization, to be successful an accurate understanding of not only the legal requirements but also the technological advances and limitations is important. I had the opportunity to utilize this book working through my Medical Informatics program. This book is current, up to date, and incorporates the necessary technical information without being overwhelming to clinical individuals.

I actually had the pleasure of studying bioinformatics under Dr. Hoyt at the University of West Florida (UWF). There is a wealth of information packed into this book! It is current, incorporates the technical information needed for comprehensive knowledge of the field, and is understandable even to those on the periphery of the medical field (industrial hygienist). It's got me hooked...now I want to learn more. Who doesn't love a textbook under a $100 too?
