HEALTH INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY PROGRAM On behalf of the Southern University at Shreveport Health Information Technology Program faculty and myself, I would first like to extend our disappointment in not being able to attend the 2016 LHIMA State Convention this year due to the unfortunate budget cuts being experienced all across higher education. I greatly appreciate the opportunity to share some of the highlights and exciting events that have taken place in our program over the last year. The University broke ground on a dedicated Allied Health Building in early 2015 which is slated for completion by the end of 2016. The HIT and Medical Coding programs will have a new dedicated classroom and lab as well as faculty offices. Curriculum revisions are ever-evolving to meet the needs of the program’s communities of interest. With that said, CAHIIM is implementing revised curriculum competencies and revised Blooms Taxonomy for HIT associate programs which are to be launched in the 2017 curriculum. Faculty have conducted a labor-intensive “gap analysis” and course revisions are underway to meet the new competencies. 44 In November 2015, faculty held its Annual Incentive Luncheon for senior clinical students. The luncheon is to acknowledge the students for performance, professionalism, and attendance throughout their professional practice experiences. In December 2015, eight (8) students successfully graduated both the HIT Associate of Applied Science degree and the Medical Coding Specialist Certificate of Applied Science. The Healthcare Access Associate certificate program graduated its first two (2) students in the Spring of 2015 and both were successful in passing the Healthcare Access Associate national certification exam. Congratulations! Graduates of the HIT and Medical Coding Specialist programs were honored at the 2015 Annual Pinning Ceremony on December 10, 2015. We would like to thank Ms. Patty Harper, business and healthcare consultant and CEO of InQuiseek, LLC, who graciously served as our motivational speaker. The SUSLA HIT Program collaborated with NWLHIMA to co-host a series of Coding Round Table Workshops from June through October 2015 at the SUSLA Metro Campus. Coding topics included myocardial infarctions, hypertension, sepsis, pregnancies and deliveries, fractures, cardiovascular diagnoses and procedures. Participants were able to actively engage in code assignments utilizing the 3M coding software in the HIT Lab. Alpha Sigma Epsilon, the HIT student fraternity, participates in community service campaigns each year. In 2015, students and faculty participated in a National Night Out fund raiser and a Breast Cancer Awareness fund raiser. 45 I would like to take a moment to humbly recognize the SUSLA HIT faculty for the following accomplishments in 2015: Ms. May was promoted to Associate Professor with Tenure, Ms. Wells was the recipient of the Chancellor’s Rising Star Award, Ms. Brittentine was welcomed back as a full-time instructor and has served as a presenter for ICD-10 training for the Nursing Home Association in Louisiana. Ms. Brittentine also plans to run for Faculty Senator for the Division of Allied Health in 2016. In closing, we always like to take the opportunity to express our gratitude and appreciation to the faculty and clinical site supervisors and staff for their dedication, commitment and collaborative efforts, which together provide students with a pathway to academic and professional success. We would also like to recognize the LHIMA Board of Directors and members for their gracious and continued support of the HIT and HIM programs throughout our state. To quote Edward Everett Hale – “I am only one, but I am one. I cannot do everything, but I can do something. And I will not let what I cannot do interfere with what I can do”. Thank You, Kim Newlen-May Program Director 46 Support of Schools Stop by the SOS tables by registration and check out our silent auction items and other drawings.
