MCC's Medical Information Technology Program prepares its graduates to organize health information and medical records by ensuring its quality, accuracy, accessibility and security. Medical records and health information technicians use various systems to code and categorize patient information for reimbursement purposes and to maintain patient medical histories. If you are highly organized with an eye for detail, Medical Information Technology could be the field for you.
