How to Become a Registered Health Information Technician (RHIT)
Much more than filing clerks, registered health information technicians have been called “the brains” of modern medicine because they’re the ones charged with gathering and storing all the moving parts—from insurance codes to billing information to medical terminology—and also filtering out unneeded info.
EMT & Paramedic
A career as an EMT begins with emergency medical technician training. Most programs only require that students be 18 years of age with either a high school diploma or a GED. EMT courses can take a few months, depending on the school and schedule, and include both classroom and practical instruction on the basics of anatomy, trauma care, and emergency management. At the end of the training, new EMTs are eligible to take the exam given by the National Registry of Emergency Medical Technicians (NREMT). Upon passing the exam, candidates are awarded a nationally recognized certification.
