About Us
Vision: CIMEx Health is the leader in cutting-edge life-long learning programs.
Values: Innovation, Passion, Available
Mission: At CIMEx Health, we work with organizations to implement cutting-edge life-long learning programs to achieve innovative breakthroughs with patients, physicians, and employees.
CIMEx Health has created unique and successful learning programs for physicians, clinicians, healthcare system employees, and patients. The CAMP™ Method, a CIMEx Health award-winning adult learning approach is applied in the development of every program. Results of the CAMP Method research were presented at the Academy of Management and are published in the two-volume work, A Compelling Case for Clinical Documentation.
What’s most unique about the CIMEx Health approach is our commitment to sharing our methodologies with our clients. Depending on your organization’s readiness, we can provide you with different levels of learning programs, including the ability to have your staff learn and apply the CAMP Method within your own organization. Our approaches, customized to your needs and budget, include:
- Virtual learning programs
- Onsite learning programs
- CAMP Method instruction
- Retreats for senior executives
- Retreats for physicians
We will work with you to develop customized content specific to your organization. However, we have created existing programs that you can choose from or modify. Sample topics include:
- Values, Vision and Mission renewal
- The EHR and Meaningful Use
- Hospital-Medical Staff Relationship assessment and development
