Yes, either would be beneficial, and I'm seeing more and more that coders are being required to have a degree, particularly as managers of coding or billing departments. What's your plan? If you see yourself in management, I'd recommend obtaining a degree in Health Administration. You could then go on and get your MHA, if you're interested in senior management. If you see yourself more on the IT side of things, for example with software development and analysis, then the HIT would make sense, particularly with regard to EHR systems and coding compliance. However you do limit yourself to that field without the management degree. Maybe you could find a program in administration that would allow you to either minor or take electives in IT courses. That way, you have both experiences and you'd be much more marketable. Good luck, and congratulations with deciding to further your education.
