ABSTRACT
One of major issues in todays hospitals is period for which medical records are to be retained. Therefore health information managements professionals have traditionally performed record retention and also the destruction functions using media, including the paper, images, the optical disk, microfilm, the DVD, and also CD-ROM. Health information managements departments therefore has to maintain specific program in order to retain and also destruct records. The main purpose of this paper to investigate and maintain the retention and also destruction process of the medical records in hospitals and codifying appropriate guidelines. The research is conducted as cross-sectional descriptive study in hospitals in India. Data was collected using the Check List. Viewpoints to be obtained using Delphi technique. Data entry and also the statistical analysis are performed using the SPSS.
INTRODUCTION
Due to many practices and services offered to people in healthcare that cater to the basic needs of an individual, the company undergoes a series of changes in record overtime which are retained safely to avoid them landing into unauthorized hands because some documents may be carrying sensitive information about individuals. Record retention involves storing records that are not in use anymore for example marriage certificates. Because of this need, different companies have developed an online policy of record detention that will determine how long should these records be retained and provide a disposal guideline. In my research, I will analyze online policies developed by the Healthcare industry on the management of their record retention.
BACKGROUND
Record retention is a very important step initiated in healthcare to ensure there is continuity of care for a patient. Professionals traditionally have been maintaining records through different means like using media as well as paper from which it can be retrieved when the owner visits the healthcare unit again thus can be used for time reference. The management has established an online policy through an appropriate retention schedule which will ensure there is minimal or no legal discovery of the records detained, this approach has worked positively in many organizations including the healthcare sector. Advancement to an online system of record retention through technology has improved the management of this process where data can be retrieved from the system for a specific person very fast and securely according to (Kruse.et.al.2015).

Since the inception of recording-keeping medical records have earned a place in society where the population of medical data from each individual patient is essential not only to trend progression but also as a general record-keeping system of a patients overall health. Accordingly, a patient file tends to generally contain: Hospital summaries (admittance, discharge, and follow-up care), radiological images, consultation reports, list if medications, allergy information, physical exams, etc. However, certain things such as the exchange of information between lawyers, doctors, and medical indemnity providers tend to be excluded based on current law and should not to be taken as part of a patient’s medical record (Ken, 2009). As such, patient records tend to contain a significant amount of sensitive information that must be safeguarded thus the need to provide proper safety and security measures are essential to patient care.
Since compilation, storage, and access of information is such an important part of patient care it is essential to provide proper safeguards to prevent unauthorized access such as steel enclosures with locks for those still utilizing paper records or complicated encryptions methods for those utilizing electronic medical records. However, with the enactment of newer laws and compliance measures of meaningful use the value of a safe and secure medical record system should not be overlooked. Thus, a comprehensive record-keeping system that is secure and fulfills the needs of patients, physicians, various other health care providers, insurance billers, and other third party entities is of the utmost importance. After analysis of United General’s policy manual some of the proposed changes below could a comprehensive update that is able to fulfill all requirements:
· Records should be kept in a secure electronic format that is legible, easily understood, written with American Medical Association approved acronyms and/or abbreviations, and easily transmissible from one organization to another.
· The medical record, at a minimum, must contain a thorough history, physical examination findings, tests and/or procedures performed on the patient along with their results, possible consultations, assessment and plan, medication history, and any other medically relevant information that allows a comprehensive compiling of patient-specific medical data.
· The medical record should include all possible discussions regarding any proposed procedures and/or the treatment options, along with risk to benefit analysis, in order to clearly demonstrate that all options were presented to the patient and they were allowed to choose without prejudice or cohesion.
· The medical record must safeguard, via encryption methods, files of any written consent issued by AND to the patient for any and all medica ...

Scenario 1:
Your hospital is implementing a new unified acute and ambulatory Electronic Health Record (EHR) system through which patient care documentation will occur. Interdisciplinary assessment forms (including nursing), clinical decision support, and medical notes will be documented in this system. The implementation of the system is anticipated to improve the hospital’s performance in a multitude of areas. In particular, it is hoped that the use of the EHR system will reduce the rate of patient safety events, improve the quality of care, deter sentinel events, reduce patient readmissions, and impact spending.

I will participate in the assessment of the scenario system in throughout the project. The scenario includes the hospital that is implementing the new unified as well as the Ambulatory EHR (Electronic Health Record) system that enhances the documentation of patient care. The purpose of the paper is explaining the selected scenario one, explanation of the reasons for selecting it, and summarizing of the research findings on the similar HIT implementations. More so, there is a description of the evaluation viewpoint, and goal guiding the assessment plan and same rationale.
HIT System Selected
The new system to be implemented has various modules that contain interdisciplinary assessment forms, medical notes, and clinical decision support where their documentation is guaranteed. The implementation of the unified system will enhance improved performance of the hospital in several departments. The new EHR system becomes of great importance to the hospital since there is a reduction of medical errors, reduction of the rate of the safety events of each patient, improving the quality of healthcare, deterrence of sentinel events, reduced patients readmissions as well as impact spending. Another reason for choosing the scenario is that the new system will enhance while fulfilling the requirements of meaningful use as stipulated in the HITECH (Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health) Act. Therefore, the need for evaluation regarding the EHR implementation becomes paramount since it will help to identify the associated risks while adjusting the modules required when offering the medication services to the patients (Lanham, Leykum & McDaniel, 2012).
Summary of Research Findings on Similar HIT Implementations
Several evaluations are analogous to the HIT system implementation of the unified system with related differences regarding the outcomes based on the primary goals. For instance, some of the implemented systems fail to meet one hundred percent ...

Challenges of the Healthcare Industry in Indiadrparul6375
he healthcare industry in India faces several challenges, ranging from infrastructure and access to healthcare services to regulatory issues and affordability. Some of the key challenges include:
Infrastructure and Resource Constraints: India's healthcare infrastructure is often inadequate, especially in rural areas. There is a shortage of hospitals, clinics, beds, medical professionals, and essential medical equipment. This imbalance between demand and supply leads to overcrowding in healthcare facilities and compromises the quality of care.
Accessibility and Geographic Disparities: Accessibility to healthcare services varies significantly across different regions of India. Rural areas often lack basic healthcare facilities, forcing people to travel long distances for treatment. This geographic disparity exacerbates healthcare inequalities, with urban populations having better access to healthcare compared to rural populations.
Affordability and Financial Barriers: Healthcare costs in India can be prohibitively expensive for many people, particularly those from low-income backgrounds. Out-of-pocket expenditure on healthcare is high, pushing many families into poverty. Lack of comprehensive health insurance coverage further exacerbates financial barriers to accessing quality healthcare services.

A Standards-based Approach to Development of Clinical Registries - Initial Le...Koray Atalag
This is the prezo I presented at HINZ 2014 conference.
Gestational diabetes has implications for both mother and child with risk of complications during pregnancy, and type 2 diabetes later in life. This paper presents the initial lessons learned from the development of a clinical registry. The aims of the Registry are: 1) 100% successful diabetes screening within 3 months of delivery; 2) Annual type 2 diabetes screening; 3) Early warning in subsequent pregnancies.
We have employed the openEHR standard which underpins our national interoperability reference architecture to represent the dataset and also to build the web-based registry system. Use of this rigorous methodology to tackle health information is expected to ensure semantic consistency of Registry data and maximise interoperability with other Sector projects. The development work has been facilitated by the ability to transform the dataset automatically into software code – ensuring clinical requirements accurately translated into technical terms.
Dataset has been finalised, registry system has been developed and deployed for pilot implementation. Data entry is underway for participants after consenting.
This registry is expected to increase the screening of women leading to earlier detection of diabetes. It should provide a valuable picture of the condition and is intended for extension and wider roll-out after evaluation.

This geographic disparity exacerbates healthcare inequalities, with urban populations having better access to healthcare compared to rural populations.
Affordability and Financial Barriers: Healthcare costs in India can be prohibitively expensive for many people, particularly those from low-income backgrounds. Out-of-pocket expenditure on healthcare is high, pushing many families into poverty. Lack of comprehensive health insurance coverage further exacerbates financial barriers to accessing quality healthcare services.

A Standards-based Approach to Development of Clinical Registries - Initial Le...Koray Atalag
This is the prezo I presented at HINZ 2014 conference.
Gestational diabetes has implications for both mother and child with risk of complications during pregnancy, and type 2 diabetes later in life. This paper presents the initial lessons learned from the development of a clinical registry. The aims of the Registry are: 1) 100% successful diabetes screening within 3 months of delivery; 2) Annual type 2 diabetes screening; 3) Early warning in subsequent pregnancies.
We have employed the openEHR standard which underpins our national interoperability reference architecture to represent the dataset and also to build the web-based registry system. Use of this rigorous methodology to tackle health information is expected to ensure semantic consistency of Registry data and maximise interoperability with other Sector projects. The development work has been facilitated by the ability to transform the dataset automatically into software code – ensuring clinical requirements accurately translated into technical terms.
Dataset has been finalised, registry system has been developed and deployed for pilot implementation. Data entry is underway for participants after consenting.
This registry is expected to increase the screening of women leading to earlier detection of diabetes. It should provide a valuable picture of the condition and is intended for extension and wider roll-out after evaluation.

Some of the health related issues from the community commons report include being
overweight and obesity. These conditions increase a person's chances of dying from type 2
diabetes, hypertension, coronary heart disease, stroke, osteoarthritis, respiratory issues, and sleep
apnea, and breast, colon, and prostate cancers. Research shows that maintaining physical fitness
can help stop or decrease some to the chances in getting some of these illnesses.

1. A vulnerability refers to a
known
weakness of an asset (resource) that can be exploited by one or more attackers. In other words, it is a known issue that allows an attack to succeed.
For example, when a team member resigns and you forget to disable their access to external accounts, change logins, or remove their names from company credit cards, this leaves your business open to both intentional and unintentional threats. However, most vulnerabilities are exploited by automated attackers and not a human typing on the other side of the network.
Testing for vulnerabilities is critical to ensuring the continued security of your systems. Identify the weak points. Discuss at least four questions to ask when determining your security vulnerabilities.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students.

ABSTRACT
One of major issues in todays hospitals is period for which
medical records are to be retained. Therefore health information
managements professionals have traditionally performed record
retention and also the destruction functions using media,
including the paper, images, the optical disk, microfilm, the
DVD, and also CD-ROM. Health information managements
departments therefore has to maintain specific program in order
to retain and also destruct records. The main purpose of this
paper to investigate and maintain the retention and also
2. destruction process of the medical records in hospitals and
codifying appropriate guidelines. The research is conducted as
cross-sectional descriptive study in hospitals in India. Data was
collected using the Check List. Viewpoints to be obtained using
Delphi technique. Data entry and also the statistical analysis are
performed using the SPSS.
INTRODUCTION
Due to many practices and services offered to people in
healthcare that cater to the basic needs of an individual, the
company undergoes a series of changes in record overtime
which are retained safely to avoid them landing into
unauthorized hands because some documents may be carrying
sensitive information about individuals. Record retention
involves storing records that are not in use anymore for example
marriage certificates. Because of this need, different companies
have developed an online policy of record detention that will
determine how long should these records be retained and
provide a disposal guideline. In my research, I will analyze
online policies developed by the Healthcare industry on the
management of their record retention.
BACKGROUND
Record retention is a very important step initiated in healthcare
to ensure there is continuity of care for a patient. Professionals
traditionally have been maintaining records through different
means like using media as well as paper from which it can be
retrieved when the owner visits the healthcare unit again thus
can be used for time reference. The management has established
an online policy through an appropriate retention schedule
which will ensure there is minimal or no legal discovery of the
records detained, this approach has worked positively in many
organizations including the healthcare sector. Advancement to
an online system of record retention through technology has
improved the management of this process where data can be
3. retrieved from the system for a specific person very fast and
securely according to (Kruse.et.al.2015).
LITERATURE REVIEW
Retention Policies
In the healthcare system, management of records involves some
basic steps from creation to utilization to maintenance then
finally to retention. The following guidelines are responsible
for the development, management, and implementation of a
record retention program;
· Records need to be kept as per the initial agreement like which
document to be retrained and for how long it will take under
retention. This helps the management to monitor and understand
the nature of documents under retention and can easily be
retrieved according to how they were saved on a program
according to (Ryan, Edney & Maher 2017).
· Clarity of the policy to show the types of records detained for
example for X-ray records of people need to be retained in a
different folder from the one that entails birth certificates of
people so that the retrieval process can be easy whenever a
customer comes back.
· Within the policy as well, there is a retention period for every
document as this will enable easy determination of documents
ready to be discarded after their detection period is over
according to (Wolff.et.al.2016).
· Through the management of retained records in healthcare, we
have procedures that except specific documents from the
program like it copies files to a specific directory on LAN that
stores ‘important files’ on the health records of clients who visit
the healthcare.
After analyzing the procedures to put in place when deducing
the best online policy for record retention in the healthcare
system, health care entities also need to align their record
retention with those a federal and state-specific record retention
requirements which will enable them to manage their records
well and ensure their total security especially when they are
keeping the records for national security groups. With all these,
4. in place, the healthcare industry will have an easy way to
manage and control their record retention and have a clear way
to protect their health records according to (Redelmeier &
Kraus 2018).
As an patient-centered decision in the support systems that are
being to be implemented, that is very important in order to
ensure validity of generated output. Misclassification of the
errors that can be very dangerous in the domain. Therefore the
Patient systems, which needs to be embedded in the mobile
devices, that needs to be evaluated and also be approved by the
medical experts. Therefore the data transmitted from various
different sources that can be potentially leveraged by various
providers to improve the patient and also for population health
for outcomes. However, the accurate measures are still to be
needed to assess improve the performance of the systems. In
addition, to these metrics that needs account for the biases that
are present in the patient-generated data. Prior research
indicated PHR systems that are mostly used by various patients
who are therefore typically more sick. Therefore, findings and
also the models generated from the analyzing data might not be
very generalizable to very other patient in the populations.
The record’s lifecycle commences when information is created
and ends with the destruction of the data. The objective for
healthcare institutions is to manage each step in the lifecycle of
the records as a way to ensure their availability. Information
creation is easy to do and many organizations are satisfied when
utilizing or creating information.
The problems occur as they try to retain or maintain this data.
Issues that come up include lack of file spacing and can be
labor intensive, especially when it comes to the retrieval of the
records. A countermeasure is a record retention schedule where
maintenance can be conducted by storing the records in another
location and scanning to provide softcopies. Even as new media
and technologies are implemented and developed, many
institutions lack the capability to scan previous records in order
to free up storage spaces. Consequently, health information is
5. stored in multiple locations and storage media, creating the
need for clear definitions of record retention plans.
Research Question
How has the healthcare industry like other industries develop an
online policy system that manages record retention?
Research Methods
In order to satisfy the objectives of the dissertation, a
qualitative research was held. The main characteristic of
qualitative research is that it is mostly appropriate for small
samples, while its outcomes are not measurable and
quantifiable (see table 3.1). Its basic advantage, which also
constitutes its basic difference with quantitative research, is
that it offers a complete description and analysis of a
research subject, without limiting the scope of the research
and the nature of participant’s responses (Collis & Hussey,
2003).
However, the effectiveness of qualitative research is heavily
based on the skills and abilities of researchers, while the
outcomes may not be perceived as reliable, because they mostly
come from researcher’s personal judgments and interpretations.
Because it is more appropriate for small samples, it is also
risky for the results of qualitative research to be perceived as
reflecting the opinions of a wider population (Bell, 2005).
Qualitative and Quantitative Research
This aim is complete, detailed description inorder to classify the
features and also count them inorder to construct the statistical
models to make an attempt inorder to explain the observed and
also in the phases of the research projects inorder to recommend
the phases of the research projects. The research design also
emerges as per the folds and also on various aspects that are to
be carefully designed before the data is to be collected by using
the data gathering instrument. Therefore the questionnaires are
used to collect the qualitative data and the SPSS packages are
used in validation studies.The data is collected in form of
statistics and the subjective individual interpretation of the
events and the participant observation,in-depth analysis
6. measurement & analysis of target concepts, e.g., uses surveys,
questionnaires etc.
Data Collection Plan
Health care involves a diverse set of public and private data
collection systems, including health surveys, administrative
enrolment, health records and billing records, used by various
entities including government entities, hospitals, clinics and
community health centers, physicians, and health plans.
Healthcare professionals collect various types of data during
ongoing patient care but also for research. Data collection
requires a consent from the patient, and research studies require
an individual consent. Some basic types of data are Electronic
health records which are generally not available for outside
researchers, administrative data, claims data, patient, disease
registries, Health surveys, clinical trials data. Clinical trials are
registered to databases to collect information about new
research studies. Qualitative Data Collection collects a piece of
detailed information about a product or an issue
The paper questionnaires are frequently used for qualitative
data collection from the participants. The questionnaire consists
of short text questions, which are often open-ended. The motive
of these questions is to collect as much detailed information as
possible in respondents own words
focused group discussion, researchers get to know how a
particular group of participants perceives the topic. Researchers
analyze what participants think of an issue, the range of
opinions expressed, and ideas discussed
There are mainly three different types of research interviews
structured, semi-structured and unstructured. The Structured
interviews are, the essentially, verbally administered ones with
collecting the questionnaires, in which list of the predetermined
questions are generally asked, with little or mostly with no
variation and with also no scope for the follow-up questions in
regards to the responses that warrants the further elaboration.
Therefore they are to be relatively quick and also very easy to
administer particular use of the clarification of the certain
7. questions that are generally required if there are to be likely
literacy or various numeracy problems with respondents.
Here in Healthcare type setting Semi structured Interviews are
carried out. Semi-structured interviews consist of several key
questions that help to define the areas to be explored, but also
allows the interviewer or interviewee to diverge in order to
pursue an idea or response in more detail. This interview format
is used most frequently in healthcare, as it provides participants
with some guidance on what to talk about, which many find
helpful. The flexibility of this approach, particularly compared
to structured interviews, also allows for the discovery or
elaboration of information that is important to participants but
may not have previously been thought of as pertinent by the
research team.
Results
The agency must have policies in place regarding the retention
and destruction of medical records. For advice on record
destruction, agencies are to contact agency legal counsel, or in
the case of public entities. Family planning clinics must retain
all records, documents and correspondence relative to medical
services for a period determined by agency legal counsel.
Records may be stored in inactive or closed files per agency
policies. Records of minors shall be retained for a period past
majority determined by agency legal counsel. Records of clients
receiving contraceptive devices shall be kept indefinitely.
Discussion
Monitoring of client medical records must be periodically
performed. (Refer also to Section 10.4, Quality Assurance, on
quality monitoring of medical records).Concurrent medical
record monitoring should be performed after each clinic session
by consistently assigned staff. There should be a system in
place to identify medical record deficits and to resolve
identified problems.Periodic medical record audits must be
conducted. Audits should randomly sample records of new
patients, continuing patients, teens or method specific users for
compliance to medical practice and documentation standards
8. Conclusion
A poorly developed the mismanaged documentation retention
policy which lead to the spoliation or the obstruction of the
justice under the both of the federal law and also the state law.
Therefore, the healthcare providers, the healthcare facilities,
also entities in healthcare industry that is must not only the
adopt, but also strictly to follow the sound documentation
retention and also the destruction policies. Therefore the
Federal and also state laws that is therefore complement on the
one another in the state laws to be dictated when in for the long
medical records be kept and in the federal law that prevents
them in being disclosed. In therefore all of the, federal and also
the state rules, will be including in the rules of the evidence, in
the healthcare law and also the HIPAA that provide a
comprehensive network of the rules that in the protect sensitive
of healthcare in information of the patients and also the
consumers.
