I actually passed the CPHIMS exam thanks to Prephow! The practice tests were spot-on. They really hammered home the complex stuff like Healthcare Information Management and all the Privacy and Security rules. If you're studying for the exam and stressing about the Clinical Informatics or System Implementation topics, grab these tests. It made a huge difference.
