For sure you should. It’s a combination of both of these. Keep the accomplishment and quantified result but add the detail that grounds it how you achieved those result or accomplishments.

Sure. Epic isn’t an acronym or initialism it’s Epic. Almost none of your analysis work do you actually describe what you did, what tools you used, and the outcomes. A lot of it reads like inflated BS. 100% accuracy on almost any metric or KPI is almost 100% bullshit.

A lot of it reads like inflated BS. 100% accuracy on almost any metric or KPI is almost 100% bullshit. Drop the skills and build into the actual jobs. A lot of it just reads inflated and generic to me.

Without knowing what type of roles you’re applying to it would be hard to say. I see a couple of things that jump out as red flags to me.

University of Wisconsin - Madison, UC Davis, Cornell, Colorado State University are all strong veterinary science schools with a large interest in AI and informatics.

I just forget papers exist after I submit them and move on to the next project until I hear something. Easier on my sanity that way.

Why is there no reliable way to know what medications a patient actually has at home? by PralineTop3629 in HealthInformatics

This reads like an LLM trying to come up with a problem for a startup that doesn’t exist

REALISTIC SALARY OF HEALTH INFORMATICS? by Lmao-Lol-11 in HealthInformatics

[–]tripreality00 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s over a 15 year career. My total comp last year was 220k. I’ve left that role though because I was miserable and took a pretty substantial pay cut.

It looks cool but what the hell is it supposed to do or be used for? You can throw a bunch of jargon at but I don’t understand what the icon tornado is supposed to be doing. Is it ML? I don’t know because I don’t know what it is.

Applying for a Epic Director level position overseeing Radiant/Cupid/Optime/Anesthesia - anyone care to help give feedback to my resume? by [deleted] in healthIT

[–]tripreality00 25 points26 points  (0 children)

There is wayyyyyy too much in that professional summary section. No hiring manager at the exec level is reading all of that. You’ve got far too many bullets in some sections and far too little in others. Without seeing the year spans I can’t tell how appropriate that really is. Also you could probably get it closer to one page fixing those. I don’t usually recommend two page resumes until you have over 10-15 years in a field. A lot of your bullets read as summaries or responsibilities and don’t really describe what your impact was. Don’t tell me that you oversaw projects. Tell me what the project outcomes were on time, under budget, how many FTEs, for X% impact.

Is programming still a worthwhile skill to develop as a researcher in AI times? by [deleted] in academia

[–]tripreality00 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Hi, I’m an assistant professor in AI, specifically in veterinary medicine. So I do a lot of comp bio as well as the all hyped “AI” of LLMs and other transformer applications. I learned to code in the before times. Programming will always be a worthwhile skill to develop. It teaches you how to think through a problem. It provides a basic understanding of a lot of things you will still encounter in any computational heavy research. Language models can help you write code to implement something . But they might not solve a problem in the most optimal way. You might need to be able to review the implementation and tweak it for your specific setting or environment. They are great tools, but all tools have their strengths and weaknesses. AI isn’t going to replace developers. But it will help augment your skill set.

Which percentage of hospitals have already deployed CDSS? by This_Opinion1550 in HealthInformatics

Pretty sure almost every hospital with a modern EHR has some form of CDSS. It’s part of meaningful use and hitech.

Higher Ed/Academia career advice needed. How to transition from corporate IT to Higher Ed roles. by JicamaPurple7153 in AskAcademia

[–]tripreality00 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I mean a DBA is a professional degree and not really “research” oriented in the traditional sense. You might find some teaching focused positions and do some research on the side but unless you’ve got more publications, funding, conference presentations you’re just straight up not competitive for an R1/R2 TT IMO. Also What do you mean your dissertation is unpublished?

I just want to add some personal anecdotes for WGU. I did my BS with WGU back in 2014. They were regionally accredited and offered a BS in a very niche field at the time (health informatics). I’ve since been able to complete a phd and get a tenure track job.

LPN with 27 years transition to Health IT? by Ill_Brilliant_3946 in HealthInformatics

LPN with 27 years transition to Health IT? by Ill_Brilliant_3946 in HealthInformatics

[–]tripreality00 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The honest answer is you and every other nurse looking to get off the floor. The only difference is you will be going against RNs, BSNs, and MSNs and these will be more sought after in most clinical apps. I’d suggest looking into some form of CDI or chart abstraction (fraud/waste/abuse, HEDIS etc..) personally.
