What Clinical Informatics is NOT
• Only Big Data and data analysis
• Just computers and medicine
• Piecemeal of the previously listed components
![Page 9: An Introduction to Clinical Informatics](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020208/55d5253fbb61eb83118b4704/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Clinical informatics is an integrated approach to improving patient care, advancing medicine, and managing the health system through the use of clinical and technical knowledge
combined with management and leadership skills.

Why You Should Get Into Clinical Informatics
![Page 11: An Introduction to Clinical Informatics](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020208/55d5253fbb61eb83118b4704/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
You'll become an integral part of the growing medical informatics industry (which is currently worth $6.5 Billion Dollars...and growing!)
![Page 12: An Introduction to Clinical Informatics](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020208/55d5253fbb61eb83118b4704/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
You'll be in high demand. According to Deloitte, the limiting factor to
clinical informatics adoption is lack of qualified personnel.
![Page 13: An Introduction to Clinical Informatics](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022020208/55d5253fbb61eb83118b4704/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
You'll learn the leadership skills required for leadership positions
that they unfortunately never taught in medical or graduate school.
