About Medical Record Sciences
Medical record sciences focuses on the accurate creation, organisation, retrieval, confidentiality and statistical use of healthcare information. The BSS syllabus includes medical terminology, anatomy and physiology, biochemistry, pathology, pharmacology, clinical pathology, biostatistics, computer science and hospital organisation.
This programme suits detail-oriented students who prefer health-information workflow rather than direct clinical procedures. Strong privacy controls are essential: records must be accessed, amended, shared and retained only through authorised organisational processes.
