Health Information Relief Operation Fund

Picture
In June 2011, AHIMA and the AHIMA Foundation announced the creation of the Health Information Relief Operation (HIRO) Fund, an ongoing recovery source to assist communities of health information professionals whose personal or professional lives have been severely disrupted by a natural or manmade disaster. HIM professionals in areas affected by disasters face a unique challenge as they struggle to piece back together their own lives while working to recover as much of their community’s patient information as possible.

For Members Affected by Disaster
Provided they meet the eligibility requirements, AHIMA members in recently declared disaster areas are invited to submit an application for up to $500 to assist in their efforts to return to work while recovering from the disaster. Only applicants who meet the following criteria will be considered for financial assistance:
​
  •  Applicant must live and/or work in a county that has been declared a FEMA-designated disaster areawithin the past 12 months
  •  Applicant must have an active registered AHIMA membership prior to the date that the county was declared a FEMA disaster area
  •  All applications will be verified by the member’s local CSA

Eligible applicants can apply for financial assistance by completing and submitting the HIRO Fund Assistance Application as directed on the form. Upon verification by AHIMA Foundation and the applicant's CSA, financial assistance will be distributed to applicants as available and in as timely a manner as possible.
