The Georgia Health Information
Management Association has developed a GHIMA Library (distance
education program).
Educational CDs may be checked
out by Regional Presidents, Vice Presidents and Educational
Chairpersons. Regions may check out the CDs no earlier than 2 weeks
prior to the educational session and must return the CDs to the
Central Office no later than one week after educational session.
When returning the CDs, the
region will need to send a list of attendees and a check for the
reimbursement. The charge for each rental CD is $10.00 per person.
The region may keep 50% of the fees ($5.00), the other 50% ($5.00)
is sent to GHIMA.
Once the program is complete,
the participants will be directed to AHIMA’s website to complete a
survey and get their CEU form.
Contact Barbara Jett, GHIMA Central Office Coordinator at
centraloffice@ghima.org or (770)
926-0769
to check out an educational CD.
