  5. Quality Improvement: Participating in quality improvement initiatives by using data to identify areas for improvement and implementing changes to enhance care delivery.
  6. Clinical Workflow Optimization: Assessing and improving clinical workflows to ensure that information systems support efficient and effective patient care.
  7. Policy Development: Developing and updating policies and procedures related to the use of healthcare information systems and data management.
  8. Interdisciplinary Collaboration: Working with a variety of healthcare professionals, including doctors, nurses, administrators, and IT staff, to ensure the effective use of information systems.
  9. Research and Evaluation: Conducting research on healthcare informatics topics and evaluating the effectiveness of information systems and technologies.
