OTech is introducing its first Enterprise Architect training for experienced healthcare imaging
and IT professionals. PACS administrators and other IT professionals who are
looking to advance their careers into an enterprise level position, will gain
an in-depth understanding of Electronic Health Records. The training is based
on the requirements for Certified Healthcare Enterprise Architects (CHEA),
which is the capstone certification for those professionals who are either CIIP
or PARCA certified. The certification exam fee is included in this training. For
those who don’t need the training, however, there will be certification of
participation, which can be credited towards continuing PARCA and/or CIIP
certification.
The two-day curriculum includes EHR architecture and its
components. It will focus on interface standards such as DICOM and HL7, with
special emphasis on the new Version 3 standard (CDA) as well as IHE. Imaging is
a major component of the training, especially on how to image-enable an EMR for
multiple imaging specialties. There is also a hands-on component following orders
through acquisition and results in the form of CDA documents.
The location is at the brand-new training (residential)
facility and resort in Truckee, CA, in the Sierra Nevada Mountain range, which is less than one hour from Reno
and/or Lake Tahoe. The dates are Oct. 17 and 18. Participation is limited to
maximize the learning experience. For more information, see our on-line schedule.
