What will help Health Information Providers increase their earning potential?
Rachel Ellison Ph.D.: New graduates need to capitalize on all the skills and experiences they have had. Many skills are transferable and should be mentioned on the resume. Highlight everything that can maximize the potential. A great first impression and confidence during the interview process will be remembered.
What hard/technical skills are most important for Health Information Providers?
Kurt Houser: This depends on your field. If you're a generalist, you need to know a little about every administrative subject, but typically you enter a technical field before you rise to a generalist/operations job, manager, or C-Suite position. Therefore, the technical skills needed depend on your desired field. Certainly, every administrator should understand data, performance improvement, and basic financial data, but if you are, for example, in finance, you should be working for credentials that show you are an expert in finance, budgeting, or accounting.
What skills will help Health Information Providers earn the most?
Kurt Houser: Early on in your career, one should focus on mastering their technical work. If you can be a trusted subject matter expert, you'll need to develop the soft skills to lead people. As you rise in leadership positions, soft skills are by far the most important. A 2015 Carnegie Foundation Study showed that "85% of your financial success depends on your soft skills". I've found that to be clearly true.
