student liaison's RHITexam. Monitor impact of the program’s new prerequisites on student enrollment, progression and success. In progress Completed No longer applicable In comparing the success rate of advanced coding courses, it appears the additional higher-level biology course did not positively impact the student success rate of HIM 240 and HIM 241. However, with the impending converstion to the new ICD-10 coding system, the BIO is required due to the coding system's intense use of anatomy and physiology knowledge. Consider alternative admission practices in order to enable students to begin the program at multiple points in the year. Such practice holds promise for filling slots created by attrition and thus increasing response time for students on wait lists and being more cost-effective. In progress Completed No longer applicable The remote cohort, due to the availability of PPE sites outside of the Dayton area, is the fertile ground in which staggered admission points could be implemented. The HIM department decided to wait until after the semester PPE term (Spring 2013) to analyze the opportunity of multiple points of entry into the remote cohort.
focused on students writing their review and including their opinion of a coding subject. HIM250, 251, 252 required input from site supervisors for written assignments. HIM245 included a grading rubric for a SWOT analysis. successfully responded to the opinions of their classmates. Written assignments/reports in PPE (HIM250, 251, 252) provided a "real world" experience for students to receive feedback on written assignments from an HIM professional. The grading rubric in the SWOT analysis proved successful in that students were able to focus on the specific analysis points required for a complete analysis.
