Timely, accurate Health Record information has always been important, and the move towards Electronic Health Records means that it is even more important to have standards in place, maintained by professionally qualified staff. IHRIM is recognised as the Authority in this specialised field and the educational role IHRIM plays in the field of Healthcare Information is second to none.

Members of the Institute are kept up to date on new policies in healthcare information and have access to the skill and expertise of other members throughout Healthcare organisations.

The Institute encourages professionalism and a structured examination system exists for those wishing to obtain a professional qualification. Qualified members of the Institute have a head start when seeking employment in the Healthcare Information and Management arena.

IHRIM holds an Annual Conference at locations around the United Kingdom. The speakers include senior personnel from the NHS at large and cover topical subjects. Other Seminars and events, organised by Regional Branches, are held throughout the year and whilst all of these events are open to members and non-members alike, reduced fees apply to members of the Institute.
