This weeks primary discussion post shall consist of two paragraphs.

• The first paragraph will simply be an introduction to the course and getting to know each other. Provide a brief introduction of yourself. Share why you selected Health Information Management as a major and identify if you have previously taken BHIM 1310 Principles of Health Information Management or not. This is an important chapter for students, who must understand their ethical obligations as HIM professionals in order to bring integrity and honesty to the workplace.

• The second paragraph should address backup plans. Since this class is online, it is important to have access to a reliable computer. What is your backup plan in the case that you experience computer or internet access problems? It is good to have more than one alternative in case you may need it.
