In a 1,000-1,250-word paper, include the following:

1. Provide comprehensive, accurate, and relevant information on the three informatics groups selected.
2. Clearly state the impact the three groups you selected have had on informatics. Be sure to present compelling arguments.
3. Define ranking and provide reasoning for ranked choices.
4. Incorporate history and current position within informatics of the three groups.
5. Identify an area of interest, evaluate its current state, and discuss future trends and challenges.
6. Provide a brief review of the various areas of health care informatics.
7. Select specific area of health care informatics and provide evaluation of current state.
8. Provide information on future trends with selected area of health care informatics.
9. Clarify the specific challenges for the selected area of health care informatics.
