????熱門原因：兩年前，大約只有五分之一的醫(yī)院使用了電子病歷。但在政府激勵計劃的帶動下，使用電子病歷的醫(yī)院數(shù)量在迅速增多：截至7月底，超過3,600家醫(yī)院（約72%）得到撥款，將進行向電子病歷的轉(zhuǎn)變。但目前大部分工作尚未完成，醫(yī)療行業(yè)急需技術(shù)人員和顧問，協(xié)助完成這個轉(zhuǎn)變。

????工作內(nèi)容：初級全職從業(yè)人員從醫(yī)療軟件公司獲得電子病歷模版，并根據(jù)臨床需要進行定制化處理。例如，若專家需要知道一名患者的過敏史，電子病歷技術(shù)人員就要負責(zé)建立這樣一份記錄。亞當?夏德在致力于電子病歷技術(shù)人員招聘的Kforce公司擔(dān)任總監(jiān)，負責(zé)醫(yī)療保健服務(wù)提供。他表示，建立電子病歷的過程類似于用PowerPoint進行演示——所有模版都是現(xiàn)成的，只需要添加內(nèi)容即可。具有一到兩年工作經(jīng)驗的從業(yè)人員可以擔(dān)任外部顧問，不僅工作時間靈活，而且收入頗豐。

????能力要求：對于新手，電子病歷專業(yè)公司將提供八至十個月的培訓(xùn)課程。要想進入這個領(lǐng)域，最常見的途徑是具備醫(yī)療行業(yè)背景，比如擔(dān)任過執(zhí)業(yè)護士或者醫(yī)務(wù)助理，愿意學(xué)習(xí)如何使用電子病歷軟件。

????用人單位：醫(yī)療行業(yè)大公司和軟件行業(yè)領(lǐng)導(dǎo)者：聯(lián)合健康集團（UnitedHealth Group）、醫(yī)療軟件公司Epic、醫(yī)療軟件服務(wù)提供商Allscripts、醫(yī)療服務(wù)運營商HCA公司、電子病歷解決方案提供商eClinicalWorks公司等。

????薪酬情況：初級50,000美元至60，000美元；有經(jīng)驗的從業(yè)者70,000美元以上。

????Why it's hot:Just two years ago, about one in five hospitals used electronic health records (EHR). Thanks to an incentive program from the government, the number is growing fast: More than 3,600 hospitals (about 72%) received payments to transition to EHR as of the end of July. Much of the work remains, and the health care sector is scrambling for technicians and consultants to aid the switch.

????What you'll do:At the entry level, full-time employees take EHR templates from health care software companies and customize them to fit specific clinical needs. For example, if a specialist requires a history of patient allergies, EHR technicians will build such a history. Adam Shad, director of health care delivery for Kforce, a firm that manages EHR staffing, says the process is analogous to making a presentation in PowerPoint -- the template is there, but the content is not. Those with one or two years of experience can then work as outside consultants with flexible hours and higher pay.

????What you'll need:For those without any prior knowledge, EHR-focused companies will provide their own eight- to 10-month training course. The most common way into the space is with a background in medicine, as a registered nurse, say, or as a medical assistant with a willingness to learn how to use the EHR software.

????Who's hiring:Health care giants and software leaders: UnitedHealth Group (UNH), Epic, Allscripts (MDRX), HCA (HCA), eClinicalWorks.

????What it pays: $50,000 to $60,000 at entry level; $70,000-plus for the experienced.
