Medical Informatics: Health Informatics is a term describing the acquiring, storing, retrieving and using of healthcare information to foster better collaboration among a patient's various health care providers. Health Informatics plays a critical role in the push toward healthcare reform using health information technology (HIT). Health informatics is an evolving specialization that links information technology, communications and healthcare to improve the quality and safety of patient care.
