QUESTIONS System implementation is the process of preparing.pdfsagaraccura
QUESTIONS: System implementation is the process of preparing and launching the information
system (IS) that has been selected for use. In doing so, one needs to consider several issues to
make it work. Read the following real world case and answer the questions. 1. Home Health of
America is about to implement the new EHR. This EHR will be used by all of the nurses, nursing
aides, therapists, and other staff members who work with patients in the patients home. It will also
be accessed in the home office for billing and other administrative purposes. The chief executive
officer mandated the big bang go-live strategy. He also mandated that the go-live begin on
Monday, which is their busiest day. His thoughts were that if the EHR could handle Monday, then
it could handle anything. The users ran into several problems on the first day. Some of the
functionality did not work, the cellular connections used to connect to the IS did not work at some
of the homes, and the documentation was slow, which prevented them from seeing the patients in
a timely manner. They had planned for some overtime as they knew that documenting in the new
EHR would be slower. The overtime ended up being twice what was expected, and they still did
not see three of the patients. The decision was made to go back to the paper system while the
problems were worked out. a. There are multiple implementation issues relating to this case.
Identify four of the implementation issues in the case and discuss each of them thoroughly.
Consider issues relevant to risks, failures, continuous operations, go-live strategies among others.
(20 points). 2. A Healthcare facility is planning to implement an HIM system. You have been hired
as the consultant for this process, and to implement one of the HIM systems for a healthcare
organization a. Develop a change management strategy for user preparation as part of the system
implementation process. You will have to research more and identify and discuss three main
aspects of change management strategy b. Go-live is the official time and date that the healthcare
facility begins to use the new system. Determine which Go-live model to use for this and discuss
this method thoroughly. You will have to think carefully of the HIM system to decide to implement
and consider if risk needs to be factored. That means you have to consider a model with minimal
risk. Feel free to use images, text and other artifacts to explain your ideas. DO NOT limit
yourselves.

Exercises in Measurement and validity
For this assignment, you will be working through questions regarding measurement and validity.. Your answers should be written in complete sentences. Some of the answers may require you to show your work.
1. You have just started a new diet program. To mark your progress, you start weighing yourself three times a day. You also notice that each time you weigh yourself in a given day, the number of pounds is different. Based on the rules regarding the scales of measurement, why is it wrong to weigh yourself more than once a day?
2. Your hospital administration has received several phone complaints from patients about rude behavior from registration staff and long wait times to register in both the Dermatology and Audiology Outpatient Clinics. A decision is made to send a patient satisfaction survey to all Outpatient Clinic patients to determine overall patient satisfaction in the hospital’s Clinic setting. The survey developed uses this type of scoring: 1 = strongly disagree and 5 = strongly agree. What type of scale of measurement is this?
3. Your hospital wants to study patients readmitted within 30-days. What measures (e.g. Medicare patients only) would you recommend be included in the study (identify at least 3)? Where would you locate the data elements (e.g. admission records)?
4. Your hospital’s Pharmacy and Therapeutics Committee undertook a quality review of Medication forms from discharges in the first quarter of the year and identified the errors by 5 general categories and then calculated the percentage of the total errors by category. The results were: Dosage Form 6%, Name confusion 13%, Communication 19%, Labeling 20%, and Human Factors 42%. As the HIM Director you are a member of the P&T Committee, the Chair asks you to prepare a graphic display of the error results for Medical Staff review.

The Electronic Medical Record: Efficient Medical Care or Disaster in the Making?
Dale Buchbinder
You are the Chief Information Officer (CIO) of a large health care system. Medicare has mandated that all medical practices seeking Medicare compensation must begin using electronic medical records (EMR). Medicare has incentivized medical practices to place electronic medical records in their offices by giving financial bonuses to medical practices that achieve certain goals. These EMR systems are supposed to allow communication between practitioners and hospitals, so medical information can be rapidly transferred to provide more efficient medical care. The EMR will enable physicians to allow access to the records of their patients by other providers. Eventually these records are supposed to be easily accessed so any physician or hospital will have complete medical information on a patient.
The physician practices in your health care system have been mandated to use the Unified Medical Record System (UMRS). The UMRS was designed by a central committee; all hospital-owned physician practices have been mandated to use the system. As part of the incentives, Medicare will add dollars back to each practice when they meet goals for reaching meaningful use (MU). MU has been defined by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (n.d.) as “using certified electronic health record (EHR) technology to:
• Improve quality, safety, efficiency, and reduce health disparities
• Engage patients and family
• Improve care coordination, and population and public health
• Maintain privacy and security of patient health information.”
It is a step-by-step system requiring “electronic functions to support the care of a certain percentage of patients” (Jha, Burke, DesRoches, Joshi, Kralovec, Campbell, & Buntin, 2011, p. SP118).
One of the hospitals in your system has many primary care and specialty practices; however, the UMRS system was designed primarily for the primary care practices. The committee that developed UMRS did not take into account the needs of the specialty practices, which are significantly different from the primary care practices. This issue has been brought to the forefront by several medical specialists who have stated UMRS is not only cumbersome, but also extremely difficult to use. UMRS also does not give the specialist the information he needs. Specialists noted that after UMRS was implemented, it took them approximately 10 to 15 minutes longer to see each patient. Since an average day for a specialist consists of seeing between 20 and 25 patients, adding 10 to 15 minutes per patient adds 200 to 250 additional minutes, or 3 to 4 hours more each day. And, the physician cannot see the same number of patients each day. In reality, this represents a 30% decrease in productivity because of the amount of time it takes to use UMRS. Now the specialist office schedules constantly run significantly la ...

Electronic Health Record (EHR) is continuing to evolve in today’s medical facilities. The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act mandated health organizations to transition to Electronic Medical Records (EMR) by January 1, 2014 in order to maintain Medicaid and Medicare reimbursement (USF Health, 2019). For this week’s discussion I will reflect on the module resources on digital information tools and technologies. I will discuss the healthcare technologies used in the health organization I work for. Lastly, I will reflect on any possible health technologies and the impact it has on nursing practice and healthcare delivery.
The health organization I work for switched to EPIC software for EMR two years ago. EPIC is user friendly for nurses as well as patients. EPIC corresponds to MyChart giving patients access to on their medical records (MyChart, 2019). I work in outpatient Endoscopy clinic where part of patient After Visit Summary (AVS) we educate patients on the use of MyChart and provide them with a code so they can access MyChart from home. Patients can access their medical records, and view lab results, make appointments, communicate with their provider, and pay their medical bills with MyChart (2019). ProVation is another form of technology used in the facility I work for. ProVation is used by the physicians where they document the Endoscopy procedure outcomes and results noted by the physician (ProVation, 2019). The physicians can document their findings as well as list out orders or management solutions for the patients (ProVation, 2019).
EHR has made it possible for nurses to provide efficient patient care as it has given us the ability to share patient information with other providers and health care organization departments, such as pharmacy, laboratory, etc (HealthIT, 2018). Patient care and experiences are improving because patients are being included in their care and they can make decisions in the plan of care. Having quick access to medical records and information results in increased patient satisfactions. Also, by combining patient portals inpatient healthcare facilities has resulted in a decrease of medical errors and adverse events (Dyes et al, 2017).
EHR poses a list of challenges with the main one being security safety. Web-based technology does put us at increased risk of breach of information by hackers. It can also be challenging for individuals to navigate web-based health technology, resulting in decreased patient satisfaction. Our older population is reluctant when it comes to using technology, they prefer paper written information. Documentation errors are associated with improper utilization, due to insufficient training (David, 2017).
In conclusion, EHR comes with many benefits as well as challenges. It has improved qu ...

The switch below has six nodes directly connected to it and a forwardi.pdfStewartxCYTurnerq
The switch below has six nodes directly connected to it and a forwarding table that can hold ten
entries. Suppose that node B sends 20 frames to node C every second at a steady rate, and
whenever C receives four of these frames, it sends a single frame in response. No frames are lost
or corrupted and nodes D , E and F are not communicating. Assume that node A is compromised,
how many frames from B's communication with C can A eavesdrop? Explain why. Consider
both directions of the communication, and assume the switch starts with an empty forwarding
table (Hint: consider what frames will be broadcast)..

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

The physicians at ABC Clinics decided to implement a new EHR- This was.pdf
1. The physicians at ABC Clinics decided to implement a new EHR. This was their first EHR and
they are
excited to take this step. The physicians decided that the fastest way to implement the EHR was
to have
two-three physicians select the information and then have the information technology staff
implement it
using the standard settings without input from other users. They decided to utilize the straight
turnover
strategy. The physicians were shocked at the number of problems that they encountered on the
first day of
go-live. Some of these issues were as follows:
. The users did not know how to use the information system
Some fields were required when they should not be
Some functionality did not work
Users had to go to multiple screens to enter demographic and other basic data
The physicians had no choice but go back to the paper and work to eliminate the issues.
1. Identify issues with the implementation.
2. Did the physicians make the right decision in going back to paper? Justify your choice.
