The document discusses unique patient identifiers and proposals for a universal healthcare identifier system. It defines a unique patient identifier as a single value permanently assigned to an individual for identification across the entire national healthcare system. Currently, medical record numbers only identify patients within a single provider organization. The document presents several proposals for a universal identifier, including enhancing the social security number, using biometrics, and the ASTM E1714 standard. It also discusses whether participation in a universal identifier system should be voluntary or mandated by the government.

Hospital Liability Audit Services
While HPL insurance policies across carriers share some similarities, there are important differences in their specific policy forms and endorsements, requiring tailored solutions for each insured's unique needs. Aon Healthcare's experts can audit a hospital's HPL and liability policies to assess whether the terms and conditions are appropriate and up-to-date. Using its database, Aon can also benchmark a hospital's limits, retention, premium, and claims against its peers to ensure adequacy. Hospitals face frequent, costly claims from various parties for issues like quality of care oversight and policy/procedure failures. A properly conducted audit can analyze coverage, claims trends, program recommendations, and benchmarking to help hospitals ensure their HPL insurance provides needed protection.
Preventative Malpractice Insurance_02
Each year many groundless malpractice suits are initiated against health care providers. Physicians are pressured to settle frivolous lawsuits in order to minimize their financial risk. Damaging physician's reputations. Creating undue stress. And greatly increasing malpractice insurance premiums. The legal system leaves physicians vulnerable to frivolous lawsuits filed by unethical plaintiffs, attorneys and "expert" witnesses.
Into to Medical Informatics
This document discusses the HealthWeb personal health record (PHR) project. It introduces the PHR and describes its functionality, which includes allowing users to populate their medical data and share it securely. The PHR will use the Continuity of Care Record standard and have staged development. Marketing strategies target travelers and those wanting portable health records. The technical design focuses on security, including encryption and access controls. Business risks around privacy and legal issues are also addressed.
Indices, Registries, And Databases
The document discusses various types of health care indices and registries that are used to collect and aggregate patient data. Indices include master patient indices, disease indices, procedure indices, and physician indices. Registries include admission, discharge, birth, death, cancer, and trauma registries. The summaries provide high-level information on what data each collects and how the data can be accessed.

UMass Memorial Health Care is a large healthcare system with over 13,500 employees across 7 hospitals. It is seeking to create a connected healthcare system to improve care coordination and quality. This will involve building platforms for sharing patient data both within UMass Memorial and with external organizations. Challenges include determining what data to share and ensuring secure data exchange. The system's solution involves clinical repositories and portals, master patient indexes, and connectivity appliances to facilitate interoperability across different electronic medical record systems.
Estimating a stock's value before buying it
The medical peer review privilege can be waived if certain conditions are not met. In a recent malpractice case, a hospital claimed peer review privilege for documents including a root cause analysis of a patient's death. However, the court ruled the privilege was waived because the hospital failed to provide an adequately descriptive privilege log and the attorney had not reviewed the documents. When produced, the documents revealed crucial facts not in the medical records that were damaging to the hospital's liability. Healthcare providers and review companies must understand jurisdiction-specific peer review laws and ensure all legal requirements are followed to maintain privilege protection of sensitive documents.
Chapter 7 & 14 HIT 109
This document summarizes different types of health record systems and data analysis approaches. It discusses patient identification systems, record filing and storage methods, master patient indexes, record tracking and retention policies. It also describes different types of data sets and indexes that can be used for analysis, such as facility-specific indexes, disease indexes, and registers that collect targeted information on specific patient groups.
Data + APIs: A Perfect Marriage
This document discusses how data and APIs can enable better integration of healthcare services. It notes that the healthcare industry has undergone three paradigm shifts: from paper to digital records, from sick care to preventative health care, and from passive to engaged patients. The document outlines Kaiser Permanente's complex existing systems and data flows. It envisions how open APIs could enable new applications and services by integrating Kaiser's data with other sources, like location data to suggest farmers markets or transit options. This would support a vision of digital health that makes services accessible and affordable beyond hospital walls by leveraging analytics, mobile access, and cloud-based delivery of care.

A Patient's Guide to Patient Portals
A patient spent 9 months seeking a diagnosis for recurrent pneumonia which ultimately led to the discovery of a carcinoid tumor in his lung. However, due to the delayed diagnosis caused by the patient's inability to access and share health records across providers, the tumor proliferated and the patient had to have his entire right lung removed. The HITECH Act mandates physicians use electronic medical records (EMRs) with patient portals to improve health outcomes and reduce medical errors and costs. Studies show EMRs can decrease errors by 11-14% and improve efficiency by reducing transcription costs by 75% and admitting time in the ER by 80%. However, only 14% of patients with portal access actually use them due to lack of functionality and

Chapter 12The Policy Analysis Process Analysis of Values
Chapter 12
The Policy Analysis Process: Analysis of Values
An analysis that considers technological capabilities, economic outcomes, and political support
will usually point toward a single health policy recommendation. Yet any final recommendation
must take into account values, especially where there are competing trade-offs. You might ask
this: Does not the political process, which a recommendation often goes through before it can
be adopted and implemented, take care of those value concerns? Do not decision makers
reflect their personal values and those of their constituencies in the positions they take during a
policy debate and in their votes? Yes, the political process will reflect the current wider conflicts
in American society over social mores, the nature of human life, the role of government, the
economic marketplace, and collective versus individual rights. In this chapter, however, we
consider some value issues relating specifically to health care and the health care professions.
These values may or may not be considered in the political process and should be assessed as
part of any robust analysis.
Value issues discussed briefly in this chapter include:
• Equitable access
• Efficiency and value
• Patient privacy and confidentiality
• Informed consent
• Personal responsibility
• Quality, variability, and malpractice reform
• Professional ethics
• Consumer sovereignty
Social welfare
• Rationing
• Process equity
This chapter ends with the broader question of how a wide range of social institutions might be
influenced by the growth of the medical sector of the economy.
12.1 EQUITABLE ACCESS
Priester (1992) suggested that the United States should reorder its values to give the greatest
emphasis to fair equity, which he defined as giving each individual access to an “adequate level
of care.” Skipping over issues of residency and eligibility, he argued, “Assuring access to health
care, regardless of cause or source of need, is society’s responsibility”; however, he added that
“this does not require access to all potentially beneficial care” (p. 92). He maintained that this is
the only approach that would not exceed the available resources or deprive some segments of
society of their opportunity for a reasonably full life. He saw this as a floor, not a ceiling;
someone with more personal resources could choose to consume more health services. He saw
the U.S. system as overemphasizing provider autonomy, individualism, and assumed
abundance. He felt that we have too often let economic considerations outweigh ethical ones.
A similar argument could be made for removing health disparities; among the major causes of
which is differential access to care. The Affordable Care Act (ACA) has made a step in the
direction of fair access by moving toward universal coverage and by calling for a defined
essential benefit package.

This document discusses confidentiality, protected health information (PHI), and the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA). It outlines the key components of HIPAA including boundaries on disclosure of PHI, security standards, consumer control over health records, accountability for improper handling of PHI, and responsibility to public health priorities. Violations of HIPAA that expose the 18 types of patient identifiers are explained. The document also reviews penalties for organizations and individuals, outlines specific penalties defined by HIPAA, and emphasizes the importance of training and policies for protecting confidential patient information.
Healthcare Overview2
The document provides an overview of the complex healthcare system involving multiple processes, organizations, and stakeholders. It discusses the various steps in a typical patient visit including appointments, check-ins, examinations, treatments, billing, and follow-ups. It also outlines the different systems used such as EHRs, billing, and imaging that often have inconsistent data due to being implemented separately. Regulatory bodies are now pushing for improved data quality and interoperability between these disparate systems to help reform the healthcare system.

Application Sexual BehaviorGender and sexuality are intertwined.docx
Application: Sexual Behavior
Gender and sexuality are intertwined in many cultures. (Gardiner & Kosmitzki, 2011) Socialization agents teach the appropriate behaviors for gender and the acceptable sexual attitudes and behaviors within a culture. Cultural differences exist around the world and across countries. For example, cultural differences may exist through the number of partners allowed in a marriage, expectations for males and females, and knowledge and application of safe sex practices. Differences may also arise in what is permitted and acceptable, such as premarital sex, same-sex relationships, and extramarital relationships. The consequences for an individual deviating from these cultural expectations also vary from culture to culture.
For this Assignment,choose one sexual attitude (e.g., abstinence, monogamy, etc.) and one sexual behavior (e.g., chastity, infidelity, etc.).
The Assignment (4–5 pages)
· Use your Final Project culture of interest and select another culture of interest to you.
· Compare the similarities and differences of sexual attitudes and behaviors in each culture.
· Describe the cultural factors that influence sexual attitudes and behaviors.
· Explain how sexual attitudes and behaviors are perceived and displayed within each culture.
· Be specific and provide examples.
· Support your responses using the Learning Resources and the current literature.

Modernising Health Information Infrastructure
According to Davoudi et al., (2015) healthcare leaders experience challenges such as payment reform, exchange of health information, among others. Ideally, the nexus in the challenges is to ensure that data remains a trusted source that can be exchanged, shared, and accessed with ease. The American Health Information Management Association offers the basis of information and data governance through some fundamental principles. This principle includes accountability, transparency, integrity, protection, compliance, availability, retention, and disposition. The principles are critical for the data quality management model. Data quality management refers to the business process that guarantees the integrity of organisation information during the analysis, warehousing, application, and collection processes. The healthcare industry has some task to ensure a robust objective of the healthcare standards.
Significant limitation of the models
Data should apply security controls to offer data protection to guarantee data quality management in the American Health Information Management Association. Ideally, data needs to be protected in backup environments and stora.

The document provides examples of clinical decision support systems (CDSS) that have been implemented and evaluated over the past 50 years. It discusses two early CDSS examples - De Dombal's system for acute abdominal pain from the 1970s and IBM Watson Health. The document also analyzes challenges with CDSS implementation, such as lack of interoperability with other health IT systems and technical barriers due to the lack of standardized systems. While CDSS aims to improve quality of care by facilitating evidence-based decisions, the systems have not fully delivered on promises to revolutionize medical practice due to various implementation challenges.
