Population Stratification Made Easy, Quick, and Transparent for AnyoneHealth Catalyst
One of the fundamental tasks when creating a population health initiative is to identify the right patients for the right interventions. The challenge with identifying patients is two-fold—there isn’t a one-size-fits all stratification method; and, current stratification tools prove to be inflexible, “black box” solutions that require time-consuming, technical expertise to customize the algorithms. Many commonly used stratification methods also fail to take advantage of the whole-patient picture, using the limited data sources that are available.
To address these challenges, Health Catalyst developed the Population Builder™️: Stratification Module; a fast, adaptable tool that allows for rapid and transparent stratification of patient groups based on predefined, yet easy to customize, populations and then provides the architecture to integrate the stratified populations into the population health workflow.
Based on the existing Population Builder tool, the Stratification Module consists of several population health building blocks that users can mix and match to create purpose-driven, transparent, and customizable populations to fit their needs. The building blocks save users the time and effort of creating the raw materials required for effective stratification by providing industry standard, evidence-based definitions for over 6,000 value sets, 21 predefined chronic condition registries, ED utilization (combined claims and clinical data), transition of care, and predictive risk models all in one tool. In addition, the power of AI is made accessible and easy with Health Catalyst-developed risk algorithms that are targeted to specific interventions.
View the Population Builder: Stratification Module webinar to learn more about its functionality, understand the customization process, observe a unique framework that integrates claims and clinical data, and make it easy to consume customized data sources, so that your algorithms include all of your available patient data.
In this webinar you can expect to:
- Learn how Population Builder: Stratification Module is used to combine data from multiple data sources—including claims and clinical data—to stratify based on a “whole patient picture.”
- Get a glimpse of the predefined stratification content that is packaged within the Population Builder: Stratification Module.

Connecting Patient Monitoring Devices to EHRsAn electronic health .pdfeyebolloptics
Connecting Patient Monitoring Devices to EHRs
An electronic health record (EHR) is a computer-readable record of health-related information
on an individual. The compiled data in an EHR can include information about patient
demographics, medical history, family history, immunization records, labotary data, ongoing
health problems, progress notes, medications, vital signs, and radiology reports. Ideally, EHRs
incorporate data from all healthcare facilities a patient uses, making the data easily accessible to
healthcare professionals.
EHRs hold out the promise of improving health care and reducing costs, but for now, many
hospitals are struggling to automate the capture of raw data from the various patient monitoring
devices - such as vital sign monitors, ventilators, and electrocardiagram machines - and pass the
data directly into each patient\'s EHR. This task is made more difficult because different devices
and/or vendors often use different standards for communicating over the network. As a result,
specialized software is required to receive the data and translate it into a form suitable for
updating the EHR. Until communications standards implemented across the healthcare industry,
each new piece of monitoring equipment that outputs a nonstandard signal requires a new
interface with the EHR. So if a promising new vital sign monitoring device is developed, some
hospitals looking to use the device may be required to create a new software middleware layer to
connect the new device to the EHR. Connecting monitoring devices and EHRs is expected to
become a major business growth area over the next decade.
Many software vendors and device manufacturers are moving quickly to capitalize on the
opportunities involved with automating the many clinical-support activities that involve
minotoring devices. THe center for Medical Interoperability has enlisted many of the nation\'s
largest healthcare systems as part of its effort to strongly encourage device vendors to adopt
communications standards that will ease the problems with interoperablity. The FDA is working
to encourage the development of interoperable devices by defining some 25 device standards.
Solving the interoperability problem will require an agreement on standards through the
cooperation of multiple shareholders.
1. What benefits can be achieved through the successful implementation of EHRs? What
additional benefits will be gained by feeding data directly from patient monitoring devices
directly into EHRs?
2. Can you identify any legal, ethical, or social concerns with the use of EHRs? What additional
concerns arise from connecting patient monitoring devices to the IoT?
3. What actions need to be taken by EHR software vendors, patient monitoring device vendors,
government agencies, and hospital administrators to enable patient monitoring devices to be
safely and reliably connected to EHRs?
Solution
Question 1
What benefits can be achieved through the successful implementation of EHRs? Wha.
Electronic health record (EHR) is a computerized patient-centric history of an individual’s health
care record that includes data from the multiple sources of care that the patient has used.
This presentation talks about the context of developing the Electronic Health records for India. the guidelines as mentioned in the GOI site is described vividly with examples, for better understanding.

Organization Needs
Government laws and regulations have been broken because of Featherfall Medical Center's outdated technology. Staffs are not only out of date in terms of skills, but the technology itself is also outdated. Discrepancies in government regulations, operational problems, and ethical dilemmas stemming from poor technology implementation have all cost the organization money. Featherfall's technological needs have been whittled down to Alert (Admission, Discharge, and Transfer ADT') and Intel, two eligible vendors (SOA Expressway for Healthcare). These systems need to satisfy three key goals: to meet personnel demands, protect the integrity of healthcare, and meet government standards. Concerns about the expense of implementing and maintaining a new system are high because Featherfall contains consequences for earlier infractions. Choosing a new computer system for Featherfall Medical Center is the right decision. Due to legislative rules, the medical center's obsolete system has severely impacted the organization's finances. In addition, they have problems maintaining the accuracy of their medical records. Some sectors suffer from a lack of training and clear communication channels. The medical center's new system must meet HIPAA compliance rules, communicate effectively amongst itself, be user-friendly for the personnel, and be under governmental regulations to be accepted.
Technology System Recommendations
In my opinion, Intel is the best new technology for Featherfall Medical Center (SOA Expressway for Healthcare). For Featherfall Medical Center, I feel Intel is an attractive choice because the system is simple to use and can be rapidly adopted into regular tasks. The technology will also allow for more outstanding communication between the staff. It will be easier to manage patient care with Intel since the system will produce discharge and transfer lists. In addition, the system can produce records of patients by their doctors and patients by their departments. The system is password-protected and features multiple levels of security. HIPAA compliance has not yet been achieved, but UHDDS is in place and working as intended. The next release will meet HIPAA regulations (Durcevic, 2019). Because of Intel's size and wealth of knowledge, you can be assured that your health information is in good hands.
Financial Resources
Intel is more expensive than the Alert (ADT) system, but it has the greater experience. As a company around for 30 years, Intel has 364 medical systems in use. There was a total cost of $2,028,000 for Intel and $1,587,000 for Alert. Compared to Alert, Intel was $441,000 more expensive (SNHU, 2019). Featherfall Medical Center will benefit from Intel's knowledge and resources as a larger firm. System costs more, but it will help with compliance, ethics, and govern ...

CHAPTER 4
Assessing Health and Health Behaviors
Objectives
this chapter will enable the reader to:
1. Describe the expected outcomes of a nursing health assessment.
2. Identify the components of a nursing health assessment conducted for an individual client.
3. Examine life span, language, and culturally appropriate nursing health assessment tools for children, adults, and older adults.
4. Compare the similarities and differences among the various approaches to assessing the family, mindful of cultural influences.
5. Evaluate the criteria for conducting a screening in the community.
6. Compare the similarities and differences among the various approaches to assessing
the community.
Athorough assessment of health and health behaviors is the foundation for tailoring a health promotion-prevention plan. Assessment provides the database for making clinical judgments about the client’s health strengths, health problems, nursing diagnoses, desired health or behavioral outcomes, as well as the interventions likely to be effective. This information also forms the nature of the client–nurse partnership such as the frequency of con- tact and the need for coordination with other health professionals. The portfolio of assessment measures depends on the characteristics of the client, including developmental stage and cul- tural orientation. The nurse assesses age, language, and cultural appropriateness of the various measures selected.
Cultural competence is the ability to communicate effectively with people of different cultures. Providing culturally competent care is the cornerstone of the nursing assessment. The nurse’s aware- ness of her own attitude toward cultural differences and her cultural worldview and characteristics

are critical to her understanding and knowledge of various cultures. Recognizing that diversity exists in all cultures based on educational level, socioeconomic status, religion, rural/urban residence, and individual and family characteristics will ensure a more successful encounter (The Office of Minority Health, 2013). An online cultural educational program, designed specifically for nurses and featur- ing videotaped case studies and interactive tools, is available.
The Enhanced National Standards for Culturally and Linguistically Appropriate Services, based on a definition of culture expanded to include geography, spirituality, language, race and ethnicity, and biology, provides a practical guide to culturally and linguistically sensitive care (The Office of Minority Health, 2013).
Technology is having a significant impact on health care. The Electronic Health Record (EHR) promotes involvement of the client in developing a dynamic, tailored database. The EHR offers great promise to improve health and increase the client’s satisfaction with his care. Data aggregation, cross-continuum coordination, and clinical care plan management are critical com- ponents of the.
Digital health is about electronically connecting up the points of healthcare so that health information can be shared securely.
This is the first step to understanding how digital health can help deliver safer, better and quality healthcare.
