AMIA is leading the effort to strengthen the health informatics profession by creating an advanced health informatics certification (AHIC) for individuals whose informatics work directly impacts the practice of health care, public health, or personal health. The AMIA Board of Directors has endorsed a set of proposed AHIC eligibility requirements that will be presented to the future AHIC certifying entity for adoption. These requirements specifically establish who will be eligible to sit for the AHIC examination and more generally signal the depth and breadth of knowledge and experience expected from certified individuals. They also inform the development of the accreditation process and provide guidance to graduate health informatics programs as well as individuals interested in pursuing AHIC. AHIC eligibility will be determined by practice focus, education in primary field and health informatics, and significant health informatics experience.
美国医学信息学会（AMIA）正在通过为那些其信息学工作直接影响医疗保健、公共卫生或个人健康实践的个人创建高级健康信息学认证（AHIC），来引领加强健康信息学专业的努力。AMIA董事会已批准了一套拟议的AHIC资格要求，这些要求将提交给未来的AHIC认证实体以供采用。这些要求具体规定了谁有资格参加AHIC考试，更广泛地说，标志着对认证个人所期望的知识和经验的深度与广度。它们还为认证过程的发展提供信息，并为健康信息学研究生课程以及有兴趣获得AHIC的个人提供指导。AHIC资格将由实践重点、主要领域和健康信息学方面的教育以及重要的健康信息学经验来确定。
