Case Study, Stage 2: Data Flow Among Health Care Systems
Before you begin this assignment, be sure you have read the “UMUC Family Clinic Case Study”, the course readings assigned to date, and feedback on your graded Stage 1 assignment.
Purpose of this Assignment
This assignment specifically addresses the following course outcomes to enable you to:
· Analyze the flow of data and information among disparate health information systems to support internal and external business processes
· Examine the implications of ethical, legal, and regulatory policy issues on health care information systems
UMUC Family Clinic Medical Practice
In your Stage 1 assignment, you created process models for the patient visit process in the UMUC Family Clinic. For the Stage 3 assignment, you will identify an Electronic Health Records System that will address the process problems at the Clinic. The EHR system you identify will initially be implemented at the UMUC Family Clinic, but will soon need to be able to connect and communicate with external systems. As part of analyzing the requirements for the new system, one step is to consider how that system will enable the UMUC Family Clinic to exchange electronic data with other health organizations – such as other providers, pharmacies, insurance companies, and even patients themselves. The case study mentions several of these. For this assignment you will select two types of external organizations and describe what kind of data would flow between the UMUC Family Clinic and those organizations and how that can be done effectively.
Assignment
1. Review the UMUC Family Clinic Case Study and identify two types of external organizations (e.g., hospitals, nursing homes, rehabilitation centers, laboratories, pharmacies, etc.) with which the UMUC Family Clinic needs to communicate and the purpose of the communication.
2. Make a list of at least five data elements or items of information that would be shared with each external organization, and explain whether that information is going out from the UMUC Family Clinic or coming in from each of the two external organizations. Note: More than five data elements are required to earn full points.
3. Conduct some external research and find at least one data interchange standard that would apply to the data that is exchanged with each organization. Provide a brief description of what the standard is, what it requires, and why it is important. (There are some specific data interchange standards that apply to health data exchange; if the same standard applies to the data exchange with both organizations, explain how it relates to each.)
4. Research, list and discuss three legal, regulatory, or ethical considerations that would relate to this data exchange and explain what needs to be done to ensure compliance with each. You must include at least one legal/regulatory consideration and at least one ethical consideration.

Paul-Elder Critical Thinking Framework
Critical thinking is that mode of thinking – about any subject, content, or problem — in which the thinker improves the quality of his or her thinking by skillfully taking charge of the structures inherent in thinking and imposing intellectual standards upon them. (Paul and Elder, 2001). The Paul-Elder framework has three components; two of which we will cover this semester:
The elements of thought (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site.
The intellectual standards (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site.
According to Paul and Elder (1997), there are two essential dimensions of thinking that students need to master in order to learn how to upgrade their thinking. They need to be able to identify the "parts" of their thinking, and they need to be able to assess their use of these parts of thinking.
Elements of Thought (reasoning)
The "parts" or elements of thinking are as follows:
All reasoning has a purpose
All reasoning is an attempt to figure something out, to settle some question, to solve some problem
All reasoning is based on assumptions
All reasoning is done from some point of view
All reasoning is based on data, information and evidence
All reasoning is expressed through, and shaped by, concepts and ideas
All reasoning contains inferences or interpretations by which we draw conclusions and give meaning to data
All reasoning leads somewhere or has implications and consequences
Universal Intellectual Standards
The intellectual standards applied to these elements are used to determine the quality of reasoning. Good critical thinking requires having a command of these standards. According to Paul and Elder (1997 ,2006), the ultimate goal is for the standards of reasoning to become infused in all thinking so as to become the guide to better and better reasoning. The intellectual standards include:
Clarity
Could you elaborate?
Could you illustrate what you mean?
Could you give me an example?
Accuracy
How could we check on that?
How could we find out if that is true?
How could we verify or test that?
Precision
Could you be more specific?
Could you give me more details?
Could you be more exact?
Relevance
How does that relate to the problem?
How does that bear on the question?
How does that help us with the issue?
Depth
What factors make this difficult?
What are some of the complexities of this question?
What are some of the difficulties we need to deal with?
Breadth
Do we need to look at this from another perspective?
Do we need to consider another point of view?
Do we need to look at this in other ways?
Logic
Does all of this make sense together?
Does your first paragraph fit in with your last one?
Does what you say follow from the evidence?
Significance
Is this the most important problem to con.

Component #3 – Research Design/Conclusion
Due by midnight on Saturday, February 24, 2018
Here you will explain the design for your proposed research. There are 3 elements to this section.
1. Hypothesis- after your literature review and problem statement you should have a clear thesis question
that you are intending to answer. This should be your first sentence under this section backed up by a
few supporting details that illustrates this claim.
a. Example: Community orientated polices has been a major contributor for decreasing crime in
inner cities. This fact has been cited throughout the literature over the years and has been seen as
an effective strategy (Please add more details, this is just an example).
b. Side note: You should have around 5 sentences, one stating your hypothesis/ thesis question, and
the other sentences should involve supporting details about your hypothesis.
2. Operationalization- Please discuss the variables that you will be using in your study. Each study should
contain a dependent and independent variable. In addition if you chose to use a theory to explain your
thesis question then please explain why your chose that theory.
a. Example: crime rate depends on community policing practices. The crime rate is the dependent
variable and community policing is the independent variable.
b. In addition, please include any issues of Validity, Reliability, or Ethics that pertain to your
operationalizing. Each of these elements should be broken off into separate paragraphs.
3. Research design/ Data and Methods- please describe your proposed research design. This should
include:
• The units of analysis
• Sampling frame
• Sampling procedure
• Sample size
• Methods of collection
Example:
With the evolution of the criminal justice system and its continued reliance on technology, the electronic
monitoring system is a safer and more effective way to keep track of criminals and reduce the recidivism of
the probationers. With probation officers under increasing caseloads and having to keep track of more and
more probationers, the people on probation are followed less and have less supervision while on probation.
This gives the probationers the opportunity to break their rules with a less likely chance that the overworked
officer will catch them. The ankle electronic monitoring system helps the officer keep track of more cases
easier and track the probationers more closely.
There are a few variables that are part of the electronic monitoring research. The independent variable of
the research is the electronic monitoring devices and the dependent variable is the reduction of recidivism.
The reduction of recidivism directly relates to the use of the ankle monitoring device. With the ankle
monitor, it convinces the probationer to stick to his clean ways because the probation officer will be notified
of the user’s actio ...
This PPT discusses informed consent, health literacy, plain language, and the general concepts for clear document design. It also discusses the legal & regulatory support for adopting clear, health-literate informed consent practices.

Most Common Clinical Research Site Worries and ComplaintsAnand Butani
All clinical research sites, especially new ones who’ve just entered the business, have a couple of common worries and complaints. The clinical research field is complicated and there are tons of formalities, papers, vendors, rules, regulations, etc. Taking into consideration the sensitivity of this business, the fact that human participants are involved, as well as the large amount of money that sponsors spend on a research, we have to work as professionally as possible.
There are many steps involved in a clinical trial, starting from the site selection visit, negotiations, then routine monitoring visits, subject enrollment and randomization, etc. All of these steps are equally important in order to conduct a successful trial. However, the complexity of the clinical research process usually worries and confuses new research sites. We’ve done a research on some of the most common site worries and complaints throughout the duration of a trial. Below, we’ll give you answers to all your questions.
