Certified Professional in Human Factors in Health Care (CPHFH) Examination

CPHFH Examination

The Certified Professional in Human Factors in Health Care (CPHFH) examination is a computer-based test offered both in person at PSI Assessment Centers and online via live remote proctor.

The examination for the Certified Professional in Human Factors in Health Care (CPHFH) credential is offered throughout the year at PSI Assessment Centers located domestically in the United States and internationally. The examination is also available online via live remote proctor.

The examination is administered by appointment only.

Available dates will be indicated when you schedule your examination. Candidates are scheduled on a first-come, first-served basis.

Candidates will be given 2.5 hours to complete the examination. 

CPHFH Content Areas

  • Assess and Analyze
  • Design
  • Improve and Monitor

CPHFH Examination Costs

  • CPHFH Examination: US $549
  • CPHFH Examination for international candidates: US $649
  • CPHFH Practice Exam: US $99

How to Book a CPHFH Examination

  • CPHFH Examination appointments will be available beginning in March 2025. 
  • Practice Exam is currently available (see below).

Live Remote Proctoring for CPHFH Exam

Live remote online proctoring option for the CPHFH exam is available allows CPHFH candidates to continue advancing their personal and professional goals without having to travel to a testing center. See the “How to Book an Examination” section for more information.

Please be advised: Using a work computer for the remote proctored exam, even one which passes the System Compatibility Check, is highly discouraged due to administrator firewalls and IT security systems which frequently prevent exam launch.

Take the CPHFH Practice Exam

Take a practice examination to help you evaluate your level of preparedness for the certification examination. Practice examinations are available for $99 and may be ordered online.

The CPHFH Practice Exam is an online practice exam that was developed to be parallel in content and difficulty to the actual Certified Professional in Human Factors in Health Care exam. The practice exam should be regarded as a diagnostic tool to assess strengths and weaknesses, rather than a study guide for the examination. A passing score on the practice exam does not in any way guarantee a passing score on the CPHFH certification examination, nor is it required to sit for the examination. The practice exam will be available online to you for a period of 60 days from the date the order is placed.

Improvement Areas: Artificial Intelligence

Artificial Intelligence in Health Care

While artificial intelligence (AI) applications in health care hold much promise, they also present serious potential risks that must be considered and addressed prior to more widespread implementation.

The landscape of artificial intelligence (AI) and generative AI (genAI) in health care is highly dynamic, rapidly expanding and changing. The excitement over AI reflects its potential to improve health care in many ways, including helping health care providers save time on administrative tasks and supporting certain types of patient interactions. 

While AI applications in health care hold much promise, they also present serious potential risks, challenges, and unintended consequences that must be considered and addressed. Health systems and health care professionals need to better understand the quality and safety implications of AI tools and how to responsibly harness these tools to facilitate both day-to-day and aspirational quality and safety in care delivery. 

With the proliferation of AI and genAI applications in health care, it is necessary to examine how to appropriately integrate AI technologies into clinical workflows and health care operations with careful attention to the impact on patient care and safety, workforce safety and well-being, and the health care sector as a whole.

IHI Care Operating System

IHI Care Operating System

IHI Care Operating System

IHI Care Operating System is an integrated suite of services and products that transforms the experience of health care delivery.

By designing and deploying technology-enabled workflows, IHI Care Operating System (IHI CareOS) connects clinical care, operations, informatics, and analytics in a holistic environment that prioritizes and accelerates learning and improvement. Just like the operating system on your phone or PC, IHI CareOS, once implemented, works in the background, facilitating and improving the experience for health care’s end users — patients and providers.

IHI CareOS focuses on improving systems, not people — recognizing that individual performance is a property of the system. It weaves together disparate, piecemeal improvement initiatives into a practical, tech-enabled learning and management system. IHI CareOS is a transformative force driving better health care for all.

Key Components

  • A safety and effectiveness management system that includes a sensor system to detect and understand safety risks in real time while continually evaluating clinical performance; and an effector system enabling rapid improvement of daily operations and enterprise-wide priorities.
  • An efficiency and patient flow management system that continually monitors flow and evaluates clinical variance, feeding effector systems that improve flow and reduce waste.
  • An experience management system that takes in data from clinicians and patients about their experience of providing and receiving care in the system. This system responds to those experiences with clinical coaching, supports to staff, and service improvements for patients.

Benefits

IHI Care Operating System represents the next frontier in health care quality and safety. By focusing on systems rather than individuals, it creates a sustainable model for delivering high-quality care that benefits both patients and health care providers.

  • Enhanced Patient Outcomes: By optimizing workflows and reducing variability in care delivery, IHI CareOS significantly improves patient outcomes.
  • Improved Clinician Experience: The system helps reconnect clinicians with their purpose, reducing burnout and increasing job satisfaction.
  • Operational Efficiency: IHI CareOS streamlines operations, leading to cost savings and more efficient use of resources.
