Workforce development needs to align with the healthcare data ecosystem emerging from digital transformation in healthcare. Careers for health informaticists are emerging as translational agents between clinicians and data scientists. Digital tools and mechanisms in healthcare, through electronic health records (EHR), devices, capabilities including artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning (ML), interoperability and health information exchange (HIE) allow clinicians and stakeholders to capture, store, access and use health data and information in ways unseen in years past, creating a new digital health ecosystem. This transformation is evolving both technologies and the strategies to influence health outcomes. Careers in health informatics are now part of this data ecosystem, and it is important to examine the current status and its implications for job seekers and for workforce development.
劳动力发展需要与医疗保健数据生态系统相匹配，该系统源自医疗保健数字化转型。卫生信息学家的职业正在成为临床医生和数据科学家之间的翻译者。医疗保健中的数字工具和机制，如电子健康记录 (EHR)、设备、包括人工智能 (AI)、机器学习 (ML)、互操作性和健康信息交换 (HIE)，使临床医生和利益相关者能够以前所未有的方式捕获、存储、访问和使用健康数据和信息，从而创建一个新的数字健康生态系统。这种转变正在改变技术和影响健康结果的策略。卫生信息学职业现在是这个数据生态系统的一部分，因此，检查其现状及其对求职者和劳动力发展的影响非常重要。
