Turkey implemented a Health Transformation Program in 2003 that achieved major reforms through centralized coordination. As part of this, the Ministry of Health mandated an integrated health IT system connecting over 800 hospitals to manage inventories. This addressed high stock levels caused by outdated rules, and unneeded stocks from ineffective estimates. Hospitals were required to limit stock to a 3-month supply level. The IT system allowed hospitals to see if others had exceeded or unneeded supplies, facilitating transfers and saving over $378 billion from 2009-2013 on inventory costs. This country-level cost savings was achieved without compromising quality or access to healthcare services.

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. The implementation of the EHR system is also
Introduction
Evaluation plan involves an integral part regarding a grant suggestion providing information aimed at improving a project during the development and implementation. 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 ...
Three Steps to Prioritize Clinical Quality Improvement in HealthcareHealth Catalyst
Healthcare organizations today have access to so much data from across their systems that they may struggle to know where to focus quality improvement efforts. An analytic framework and a stepwise process ensures organizations have broad data access and can identify the most significant opportunities for impact. With a strategic, data-informed approach to clinical quality improvement, health systems can consume fewer resources, discover cost savings, and improve ROI and the quality of care.
Three steps comprise an effective quality improvement process:
1. Adopt a healthcare-specific, open, scalable data platform.
2. Identify improvement priorities using the 80-20 rule.
3. Gain consensus from clinical teams on specific projects and goals.

Abstract: To broadly examine the potential health and financial benefits of health information technology (HIT),
this paper compares health care with the use of IT in other industries. It estimates potential savings and costs of
widespread adoption of electronic medical record (EMR) systems, models important health and safety benefits,
and concludes that effective EMR implementation and networking could eventually save more than $81 billion
annually - by improving health care efficiency and safety - and that HIT-enabled prevention and management of
chronic disease could eventually double those savings while increasing health and other social benefits.
However, this is unlikely to be realized without related changes to the health care system. [PUBLICATION

Abstract
The decision to implement a new electronic health record (EHR) or to upgrade a current system is based on several factors, including providing safe and up-to-date patient care, meeting federal mandates and Meaningful Use requirements, and leveraging advanced levels of clinical decision support. Implementing EHRs entails multilayered decisions at each stage of the implementation. Major decisions include evaluating vendor and system selection, determining go-live options, redesigning workflow, and developing procedures and policies. The timeline and scope of the project is primarily dictated by expenses, staff, resources, and the drop-dead date for go-live. Success depends on variables such as a well-thought-out and detailed project plan with regular review and updating of the critical milestones, unwavering support from the organization's leadership, input from users during the design and build phases, mitigation of identified risk factors, and control of scope creep. The implementation of an EHR is never finished. Medication orders, nonmedication orders, and documentation screens or fields will continuously need to be added, modified, or inactivated; patches will be installed and tweaks to workflows and functionality will be ongoing.
Introduction
This chapter focuses on the implementation of healthcare information systems. Of course, many different types of applications are used within a healthcare information system. The general principles for implementing these many different applications are the same; however, for the purposes of discussion this chapter will focus mainly on the implementation of an electronic health record (EHR) to demonstrate these general principles. In 2004 President George W. Bush promoted the i ...
DISCUSSION 1According to HIMSS, interoperability describe.docxEstelaJeffery653
DISCUSSION 1
According to
HIMSS
, interoperability “describes the extent to which systems and devices can exchange data, and interpret that shared data. For two systems to be interoperable, they must be able to exchange data and subsequently present that data such that it can be understood by a user.” There are four levels of interoperability:
foundational
structural
semantic
organizational
Foundational interoperability: the ability of one I.T. system to send data to another I.T. system. The receiving I.T. system does not necessarily need to be able to interpret the exchanged data — it must simply be able to acknowledge receipt of the data payload. This is the most basic tier of interoperability.
Structural interoperability: “the uniform movement of healthcare data from one system to another such that the clinical or operational purpose and meaning of the data are preserved and unaltered,” HIMSS states.
In order to achieve structural interoperability, the recipient system should be able to interpret information at the data field level. This is the intermediate level of interoperability.
Semantic Interoperability: the ability of health I.T. systems to exchange and interpret information — then actively use the information that has been exchanged. Semantic interoperability is the highest level of interoperability.“Semantic interoperability takes advantage of both the structuring of the data exchange and the codification of the data, including vocabulary so that the receiving information technology systems can interpret the data,” stated HIMSS.
Achieving semantic interoperability allows providers to exchange patient summary information with other caregivers and authorized parties using different EHR systems to improve care quality, safety, and efficiency.
This level of interoperability allows healthcare organizations to seamlessly share patient information to reduce duplicative testing, enable better-informed clinical decision-making, and avoid adverse health events.
Effective health data exchange can also help to improve care coordination, reduce hospital readmissions, and ultimately save hospitals money.
“New” Organizational (Level 4) – includes governance, policy, and social. While semantic interoperability is the goal, most healthcare organizations are still working to establish foundational and structural interoperability.
Hospitals and health systems can utilize existing health data standards to achieve lower levels of interoperability and set a solid foundation for future improvements in health data exchange.
Evaluate one of the Interoperability levels listed above.
Include the following aspects in the discussion:
Using your text and other course resources, assess one of the following levels listed above and its importance in achieving full interoperability.
Discuss technical and economic barriers hospitals face in achieving your chosen level of interoperability.

Introduction
Merit-founded Incentive Payment System (MIPS) is a platform for value-founded settlement under the Quality Payment Program (QPP). The system aims at fostering the current innovation and improvement in clinical operations. MIPS mean that the organization should rationalize Physician Quality Reporting System (PQRS) (Meeks & Singh, 2019). Meaningful use guidelines are certain facets of an HER system that providers will be needed to use in their organization.

No replacement of diagnosing equipments
Independence Medical Center’s Electronic Health Records (HER) system has complied with some set guidelines. For instance, the healthcare organization has set technology system in its intensive care units. In addition, there is use of computers to draw guidance and instructions regarding several conditions on patients. However, the organization has not obeyed some guidelines like the replacement of outdated diagnosing equipment and lack of integrating EHR to accommodate all patients’ needs (Boonstra & Vos, 2018).

Independence Medical Center’s Electronic has set up various EHR systems for use in different departments to deliver healthcare services to patients. For instance, the organization has implemented PACS, which is a health check imaging technology which offers reasonable storage and expedient admission to images from numerous modalities (Data & Komorowski, 2017).

Evaluation of EHR
The electronic health record system used in the ambulatory system lacks integration to accommodate patient’s needs. The system does not alert physician on drug interactions and other warning. On another point, each department has its exclusive system making it hard to share information between staff members in various units (Boonstra & Vos, 2018). An effective EHR system should be in a position to enable information transmission to all staff.
The convergence of separate health systems has led to
a great increase in data, which some organisations are
struggling to get to grips with. Harnessing analytic tools
and sharing knowledge is the best way forward

Deep Leg Vein Thrombosis (DVT): Meaning, Causes, Symptoms, Treatment, and Mor...The Lifesciences Magazine
Deep Leg Vein Thrombosis occurs when a blood clot forms in one or more of the deep veins in the legs. These clots can impede blood flow, leading to severe complications.
Defecation
Normal defecation begins with movement in the left colon, moving stool toward the anus. When stool reaches the rectum, the distention causes relaxation of the internal sphincter and an awareness of the need to defecate. At the time of defecation, the external sphincter relaxes, and abdominal muscles contract, increasing intrarectal pressure and forcing the stool out
The Valsalva maneuver exerts pressure to expel faeces through a voluntary contraction of the abdominal muscles while maintaining forced expiration against a closed airway. Patients with cardiovascular disease, glaucoma, increased intracranial pressure, or a new surgical wound are at greater risk for cardiac dysrhythmias and elevated blood pressure with the Valsalva maneuver and need to avoid straining to pass the stool.
Normal defecation is painless, resulting in passage of soft, formed stool
CONSTIPATION
Constipation is a symptom, not a disease. Improper diet, reduced fluid intake, lack of exercise, and certain medications can cause constipation. For example, patients receiving opiates for pain after surgery often require a stool softener or laxative to prevent constipation. The signs of constipation include infrequent bowel movements (less than every 3 days), difficulty passing stools, excessive straining, inability to defecate at will, and hard feaces
IMPACTION
Fecal impaction results from unrelieved constipation. It is a collection of hardened feces wedged in the rectum that a person cannot expel. In cases of severe impaction the mass extends up into the sigmoid colon.
DIARRHEA
Diarrhea is an increase in the number of stools and the passage of liquid, unformed feces. It is associated with disorders affecting digestion, absorption, and secretion in the GI tract. Intestinal contents pass through the small and large intestine too quickly to allow for the usual absorption of fluid and nutrients. Irritation within the colon results in increased mucus secretion. As a result, feces become watery, and the patient is unable to control the urge to defecate. Normally an anal bag is safe and effective in long-term treatment of patients with fecal incontinence at home, in hospice, or in the hospital. Fecal incontinence is expensive and a potentially dangerous condition in terms of contamination and risk of skin ulceration
HEMORRHOIDS
Hemorrhoids are dilated, engorged veins in the lining of the rectum. They are either external or internal.
FLATULENCE
As gas accumulates in the lumen of the intestines, the bowel wall stretches and distends (flatulence). It is a common cause of abdominal fullness, pain, and cramping. Normally intestinal gas escapes through the mouth (belching) or the anus (passing of flatus)
FECAL INCONTINENCE
Fecal incontinence is the inability to control passage of feces and gas from the anus. Incontinence harms a patient’s body image

Medical Technology Tackles New Health Care Demand - Research Report - March 2...pchutichetpong
M Capital Group (“MCG”) predicts that with, against, despite, and even without the global pandemic, the medical technology (MedTech) industry shows signs of continuous healthy growth, driven by smaller, faster, and cheaper devices, growing demand for home-based applications, technological innovation, strategic acquisitions, investments, and SPAC listings. MCG predicts that this should reflects itself in annual growth of over 6%, well beyond 2028.
According to Chris Mouchabhani, Managing Partner at M Capital Group, “Despite all economic scenarios that one may consider, beyond overall economic shocks, medical technology should remain one of the most promising and robust sectors over the short to medium term and well beyond 2028.”
There is a movement towards home-based care for the elderly, next generation scanning and MRI devices, wearable technology, artificial intelligence incorporation, and online connectivity. Experts also see a focus on predictive, preventive, personalized, participatory, and precision medicine, with rising levels of integration of home care and technological innovation.
The average cost of treatment has been rising across the board, creating additional financial burdens to governments, healthcare providers and insurance companies. According to MCG, cost-per-inpatient-stay in the United States alone rose on average annually by over 13% between 2014 to 2021, leading MedTech to focus research efforts on optimized medical equipment at lower price points, whilst emphasizing portability and ease of use. Namely, 46% of the 1,008 medical technology companies in the 2021 MedTech Innovator (“MTI”) database are focusing on prevention, wellness, detection, or diagnosis, signaling a clear push for preventive care to also tackle costs.
In addition, there has also been a lasting impact on consumer and medical demand for home care, supported by the pandemic. Lockdowns, closure of care facilities, and healthcare systems subjected to capacity pressure, accelerated demand away from traditional inpatient care. Now, outpatient care solutions are driving industry production, with nearly 70% of recent diagnostics start-up companies producing products in areas such as ambulatory clinics, at-home care, and self-administered diagnostics.

Country level cost saving with hospital inventory system.
1. Country Level Cost Saving with Integrated Health IT System:
A Case Study from Turkey
M. Said YILDIZ, M. Mahmud Khan, PhD
Health Services Policy and Management Department, Arnold School of Public Health, University of South Carolina
Turkey has achieved remarkable reforms with Health Transformation Program
(HTP) which started in 2003. In recent years various aspects of healthcare
services were targeted by HTP to achieve higher level of efficiency and
effectiveness of the system. It is interesting to note that most of the intended
objectives of the reform initiatives were achieved.
Institutional structure of health system is transformed with a continuous political
commitment and result oriented approach. Constructing a more robust and
conveniently accessible healthcare system has become possible with central
coordination of institutions.
Background
This case study analyzes effects of policy changes and tries to reach some
implications for effects of hospital level implementations on country-level
financial outcomes with centralized IT system.
Study Objective
.
First problem: High stock levels
Hospitals confronted with excessive inventory costs because of having to require large warehouses and
waste of unneeded medications and medical supplies by time with expiration.
Reason of high stock level problem was conventional stocking rules and behaviors. Hospitals were
obtaining all of the materials they needed for one year at the beginning of the fiscal year and they were
taking over the stocking responsibility for whole inventory from provider companies.
Central and interdependent Health IT Systems and
CRMS-Central Resource Management System
Data sources and Limitations
Evaluations and analysis are based on Turkey’s annual amount of total hospital
expenditure and value of stocks kept at the hospital level compared to total
number of inpatients for same year
Second Problem: Unneeded stocks
Information technology systems which are operated in interconnection for
stocks, accountings and human resources (CRMS-Central Resource
Management System, SAS-Standardized Accounting System and HRMS-
Human Resources Management System) were started in 2009 for more than
800 MoH hospitals.
Unneeded medicines and medical supplies was another problem besides excessive stocks which were
grown out of ineffective estimations for usage, unforeseeable changes in medicine needs(seasonal or
epidemics) and high physician turnover rates.
MoH released a regulation and mandated to hospitals to limit stock levels at the level of
materials’ “3 months needs”. Hospitals have purchased all of the materials and medicines at
the beginning of each year but they have taken the supplies, devices and medicines partially
instead of taking one budget year need in one time and tried to not to excess maximum
stock level. This regulation created a pressure over hospital stock managers and targeted to
generate a consciousness for decreasing stock levels.
First solution: Limiting with 3 months need
Solution for both of the Problems: Transfers between hospitals
MoH wanted from hospitals which have exceeded and unneeded stocks to make declaration
by IT system – CRMS. At the same time MoH declared to hospitals not to purchase anything
before having inquiry on IT system and be sure that other hospitals haven’t the same
material in exceeded or unneeded status.
Hospitals which had exceeded stock(each material which exceeds maximum stock level -
need of 3 months) or unneeded stock(because of other reasons like seasonal changes in
usage etc.) were supposed to have data entry about these materials to system, so that other
hospitals can see and demand before purchasing. Whenever hospitals have needed a
material, initially they made an inquiry in IT system for other hospitals’ unneeded and
exceeded stocks. If they couldn’t provide materials from other hospitals’ unneeded or
exceeded stocks they opened bidding to market.

Country level saving without compromising quality and limiting access to health
services were achieved with this hospital level policy. Regarding gratitude of health
expenditure allocated to medicine and materials and their import dependent nature
for developing countries like Turkey, saving from hospital inventories can be
evaluated to be critically important.
Conclusion
Total health expenditure as a percentage of GDP increased rapidly from 4.8 to
5.4 from 1999 to 2012. Since hospital sector accounts for 40% of total health
care costs (43.9% of health expenditure in 2008) and since 64% of
hospitals(more than 800 hospital with different sizes) are directly administered
by the Ministry of Health, it was hoped that significant country-level cost-savings
will be achieved because of the cost containment policy implemented by the
Ministry in the MoH owned hospitals.
In order to increase access and to improve efficiency, HTP triggered some
policy implementations in Turkey one of which is being presented and analyzed
here. The new policy change was the adoption of centralized and web based
information technology system that connected more than 1000 health facilities.
The system addressed two important problems, high inventory levels of hospiital
drugs and supplies and waste of medical products.
CRMS-Central Resource Management System was generated as an integrated
web based system which gives MoH the ability of monitoring, controlling and
policy making over more than 1000 health facility inventory systems. With
advanced functions of CRMS, hospitals and MoH could make price inquiries,
macro analysis and they could plan for future usage.
More convenient implementation of macro policy changes was another
acquisition of integrated-centralized IT system generation. MoH could plan and
implement a policy and spread successful experiments to all other health
facilities with integration of hospital record and report systems. The inventory
projects which this case study subjected, could have been implemented through
that newly generated IT system.
