What is a volunteer RHIT?

Volunteer RHITs are individuals who hold the Registered Health Information Technician (RHIT) credential and offer their expertise on a voluntary basis. They assist healthcare organizations with managing patient health information and medical records, ensuring data accuracy, security, and compliance with regulations. Volunteering as an RHIT can include tasks such as organizing health records, supporting electronic health record (EHR) transitions, or helping with data quality projects. This role provides valuable support to organizations while allowing RHITs to gain experience, give back to the community, and maintain their professional skills.
