This document discusses options for healthcare organizations to meet meaningful use reporting requirements for clinical quality measures. It may be best to buy a certified solution rather than building the capabilities internally given the complexities of measure calculation and maintenance. While EHR vendors have certification, their solutions still face challenges in customization and scaling to support all clients. The document reviews specific challenges and considerations for EHR vendors and clients in accurate and ongoing clinical quality reporting.
This FDA warning letter outlines issues with a clinical investigation conducted by Dr. Thomas Beilke between 2008-2009. The FDA inspection found that Dr. Beilke failed to properly conduct or supervise the clinical investigation according to regulations. Specifically, the letter cites that Dr. Beilke did not personally conduct or supervise the investigation as required. The FDA concluded that Dr. Beilke did not adhere to statutory requirements and regulations governing clinical investigations.

This document provides an introduction and overview of computer validation training. It discusses why computer validation is important for business, safety, and regulatory reasons. It explains that computer validation has been a regulatory requirement for over 20 years, but scrutiny has increased significantly in recent years. The document outlines the basics of what constitutes a computer system and the validation process, who plays key roles in validation, and why defects in computer systems can have more severe consequences than other equipment problems.
The document discusses the potential for health information technology (HIT) to improve the US healthcare system by reducing costs and improving quality and access. It outlines some of the key challenges facing the system, including high costs, medical errors, and the large uninsured population. The speaker then discusses how HIT solutions like electronic health records (EHRs), health information exchange (HIE), and clinical decision support (CDS) could address these problems by improving information management. However, barriers like costs, lack of standards, and interoperability have prevented widespread adoption. Recent legislation and financial incentives aim to promote HIT use.
Systems Engineering and Requirements Management in Medical Device Product Dev...UBMCanon
Systems engineering is an interdisciplinary approach that focuses on defining customer needs, documenting requirements, and enabling the realization of successful systems. It considers both business and technical needs across the entire life cycle from concept to disposal. Requirements management is the foundation of systems engineering. Organizations can improve processes and reduce risks through structured approaches like the Systems Engineering V-Model and maturity models like CMMI that provide standard processes and best practices. Verification and validation are used to ensure a system meets its requirements through methods like testing, analysis and demonstration.
Sponsors and CROs must be assured that clinical data collected for regulatory submissions comply with the regulations and guidance around the world for data quality and integrity. Regulatory agencies are placing more emphasis on the voice of the patient, and they are auditing patient reported data for validity and trustworthiness. Intuitively, capturing patient data electronically instead of on paper would seem capable of providing valid data more reliably and efficiently. PHT has demonstrated that this is true.

Clinical decision support (CDS) aims to improve patient care and reduce costs through three key pillars: [1] providing the best available knowledge when needed, [2] achieving high adoption and effective use of CDS tools, and [3] continuously improving knowledge and methods. However, CDS faces challenges including slow adoption of guidelines, low adherence to evidence-based practices, and information overload for clinicians. Next-generation CDS tools utilizing clinical intelligence and analytics show promise in addressing these challenges by providing personalized and actionable decision support to clinicians.

This document discusses transforming supply chain management in healthcare to a value-based clinically integrated model. At the transformational level:
- Supply chain is viewed as patient-centric and products are judged on how they contribute to clinical and organizational goals.
- A multi-disciplinary medical economics team is formed with clinicians, supply chain, and finance to evaluate new technologies and standardize products based on efficacy, costs, and outcomes.
- Automation, data analysis, and physician engagement are needed to optimize contracts, reduce non-compliant spending, and minimize excess inventory which can lead to significant cost savings.
This document discusses preparing for the transition from ICD-9 to ICD-10 diagnosis and procedure codes. It notes that ICD-10 will include significantly more codes than ICD-9, with codes containing alphanumeric characters rather than just numeric. The document outlines challenges hospitals and physicians may face in the transition, including updating systems, increasing documentation specificity, and budgeting for transition costs. It recommends starting preparations early given the magnitude of the changes required.
This document discusses system selection for electronic health records. It compares commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) software to in-house developed systems, outlining advantages and disadvantages of each. COTS software has lower development costs but limits customization, while in-house systems are tailored to needs but have higher costs. The document also describes ONC certification requirements and Meaningful Use criteria to receive federal stimulus incentives for implementing health IT systems.
