Resource Overview

The process of finding and hiring the best-qualified candidate for a Quality and/or Health IT job in your health center is time-intensive and challenging. Having job vacancies or recruiting the wrong person can cost the organization in terms of real money, time spent, morale, and productivity. Successful hiring requires refining the recruitment process, which includes analyzing the requirements of a job, attracting employees to that job, screening and selecting applicants, and hiring the new employee to the organization.

This section includes resources to help you define and refine your recruiting methods.  These are tools that have been tested by health centers in the field and are proven to work. These resources reflect the combined experience of several successful health centers around the country.

Also available are templates for Health IT Job Functions and samples of Health IT Job Descriptions.

Preventing Diabetic Blindness: The Innovative Solutions of 3 Health Systems to Achieve a 5-Star Goal

A HIMSS Learning Center Webinar

This webinar will demonstrate how you can improve the care of your patients with diabetes and close care gaps, improving HEDIS compliance. Three healthcare leaders from different organizations will discuss how they’ve implemented diabetic retinal exam (DRE) programs in primary care that is detecting disease early in at-risk patients.

You will hear perspectives from operations, medical directors, and eye care specialists.

During this webinar, you will:
• Hear how primary care physicians are using the latest telemedicine  solution to provide better quality and lower cost care to their diabetic patient populations
• Learn how 3 health systems are improving HEDIS outcomes, STAR ratings, and HCC/RAF scores in risk-based contracts
• Understand the effect of the IRIS-EHR integration on workflow improvement that enhances patient identification, examination, and reimbursement
