Welcome to the Rhode Island Health Information Management Association (RIHIMA), a non-profit organization,
a component state association of the American Health Information Management Association (AHIMA). The association was founded in 1935 by a
group of Medical Record Clerks working in local hospitals; their meetings gave the members an opportunity to exchange ideas pertaining to
their work.
Today RIHIMA has approximately 100 active members with an additional 50 certified non-members.
