Health Information Management Jobs in Pennsylvania: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become a health information management professional in Pennsylvania?
Pennsylvania does not issue a state license for health information management, but most employers require national credentials from AHIMA, specifically the Registered Health Information Technician credential for associate-level candidates or the Registered Health Information Administrator credential for those with a bachelor's degree. You earn those credentials by completing an accredited health information management program, then passing the respective AHIMA examination. Community colleges and universities across Pennsylvania offer accredited programs that qualify graduates to sit for those exams.
How much do health information managements make in Pennsylvania?
Health information managements in Pennsylvania earn a median of about $46,840 a year, based on May 2025 Bureau of Labor Statistics wage data, ranging from around $37,490 for the lowest 10% to over $77,880 for the top 10%. Pay rises with experience, specialty, and employer.
Which companies hire health information managements in Pennsylvania?
Employers hiring health information managements in Pennsylvania right now include UPMC, Kennametal, and Lifepoint Health, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of October 2026. Pennsylvania's concentration of large integrated health systems, academic medical centers, and regional hospital networks means consistent openings exist across the state rather than being limited to a single metro.
Which Pennsylvania cities have the most health information management jobs?
Pennsylvania, Hershey, and Latrobe lead Pennsylvania for health information management openings. Philadelphia's concentration of academic medical centers and major health systems drives the largest share of postings, while Pittsburgh's anchor employers such as UPMC and Allegheny Health Network generate steady volume, and the Lehigh Valley's growing hospital networks have expanded hiring beyond the two primary metros.
Are there remote health information management jobs in Pennsylvania?
Yes, and more than most healthcare roles, because much of health information management work centers on coding, documentation review, data analysis, and compliance tasks that can be performed entirely off-site. About 43% of health information management openings tied to Pennsylvania are remote or hybrid as of October 2026, reflecting how widely employers have accepted distributed teams for this field. Medical coding, release of information, and CDI specialist positions are the most consistently offered as fully remote.
How can I get hired as a health information management professional in Pennsylvania with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path is completing an AHIMA-accredited associate degree program in health information technology at a Pennsylvania community college, then sitting for the Registered Health Information Technician exam before applying. Large Pennsylvania health systems such as UPMC and Penn Medicine regularly hire new graduates into coding specialist and HIM associate roles that do not require prior work experience. Candidates who also hold a medical billing or coding certificate from a program at a Pennsylvania community college often have an edge, and moving laterally from a medical records clerk or patient access representative role within a hospital is another common door into the field.
Where can I find and apply to health information management jobs in Pennsylvania?
You can find and apply to health information management jobs in Pennsylvania on Migrate Mate, which lists current Pennsylvania openings from employers across the state. Find the roles that fit your experience and credentials and apply directly to the ones that interest you.
