HSA-6197 Health Information System And Electronic Health
Record
Final Project
Final Project: Implementation Assessment of Electronic Health
Record.
Objective:
For this assignment, you will create the assessment to
implement the new HER in a Health care setting. The
assessment phase is foundational to all other EHR
implementation steps, and involves determining if the practice
is ready to make the change from paper records to
electronic (EHRs), or to upgrade their current system to a new
certified version. You will be encourage to choose a Community
Health Center or a Doctor’s Office. The Assessment is designed
because our world has been radically transformed by digital
technology – smart phones, tablets, and web-enabled devices
have transformed our daily lives and the way we communicate.
Medicine is an information-rich enterprise. A greater and more
seamless flow of information within a digital health care
infrastructure, created by electronic health records (EHRs),
encompasses and leverages digital progress and can transform
the way care is delivered and compensated. With EHRs,
information is available whenever and wherever it is needed.
The Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical
Health (HITECH) Act, a component of the American Recovery
6. and Reinvestment Act of 2009, represents the Nation’s first
substantial commitment of Federal resources to support the
widespread adoption of EHRs. As of August 2012, 54 percent of
the Medicare- and Medicaid-eligible professionals had
registered for the meaningful use incentive program.
The paper will be 8-10 pages long. More information and due
date will provide in the assignments link.
ASSIGNMENT GUIDELINES (10%):
The assessment should look at the current state of the practice:
· Are administrative processes organized, efficient, and well
documented?
· Are clinical workflows efficient, clearly mapped out, and
understood by all staff?
· Are data collection and reporting processes well established
and documented?
· Are staff members computer literate and comfortable with
information technology?
· Does the practice have access to high-speed internet
connectivity?
· Does the practice have access to the financial capital required
to purchase new or additional hardware?
· Are there clinical priorities or needs that should be addressed?
· Does the practice have specialty specific requirements?
Through the Regional Extension Centers (RECs), we’ve learned
that these questions and assessment tools provide a good
understanding of the current state of the practice and can help
identify key goals for improvement. Often, these goals relate to
patient quality, patient satisfaction, practice productivity and
efficiency, improved quality of work environment, and most
important to the overall goal – improved health care.
EACH PAPER SHOULD INCLUDE THE FOLLOWING:
7. 1. Introduction (25%) Offer an abstract that provide a brief
outlook of the proposal and explaining in your own words what
is meant by a Electronic Health Record for a Health care
Facility.
2. Your Implementation Assessment of Electronic Health

b. Envision the Future
The next EHR implementation step is to envision the future
state of the practice. What would the practice leadership like to
see different in the future? More specifically:
· What will be different for the patients?
· What will be different for the providers?
· What will be different for the staff?c.Set Goals
Goals and needs should be documented to help guide decision-
making throughout the implementation process. And they may
need to be re-assessed throughout the EHR implementation
steps to ensure a smooth transition for the practice and all staff.
We recommend that you set goals in areas that are important
and meaningful to your practice. These may be clinical goals,
revenue goals, or goals around work environment. Goals in all
three areas will help assure balanced processes after the
implementation. Goals that are important to you will help you
and your staff through the change process. We recommend you
follow the “SMART” goals process. This process includes
setting objectives and goals that meet the following criteria:
8. · Specific – Achieving the goal would make a difference for our
patients and our practice
· Measureable – We can quantify the current level and the target
goal
· Attainable – Although the goal may be a stretch, we can
achieve it
· Relevant – This is worth the effort
· Time bound – There are deadlines and opportunities to
celebrate success!
These goals become the guide posts for an EHR implementation
project, and achieving these goals will motivate providers and
practice staff to make necessary changes and attain new skills.d.
Plan Your ApproachClarify and Prioritize
Building an EHR implementation plan becomes critical for
identifying the right tasks to perform, the order of those tasks,
and clear communication of tasks to the entire team involved
with the change process. One effective first step in the planning
process is for the team to segment tasks into three categories:
· What new work tasks/process are we going to start doing?
· What work tasks/process are we going to stop doing?
· What work tasks/process are we going to sustain?
The start/stop/sustain exercise helps clarify what the new work
environment will be like after the change and help the team
prioritize tasks in the overall EHR implementation plan.Steps in
the Planning Phase
Here are some tactical steps that typically occur during the EHR
implementation planning phase. You may collaborate and use
tools provided by your Regional Extension Center (REC), IT
vendor, and/or EHR vendor (if you already have an existing
EHR product) to complete these activities.
1. Analyze and map out the practice’s current workflow and
processes of how the practice currently gets work done (the
current state).
2. Map out how EHRs will enable desired workflows and
processes, creating new workflow patterns to improve
inefficiency or duplicative processes (the future state).
9. 3. Create a contingency plan – or back-up plan – to combat
issues that may arise throughout the implementation process.
4. Create a project plan for transitioning from paper to EHRs,
and appoint someone to manage the project plan.
5. Establish a chart abstraction plan, a means to convert or
transform, information from paper charts to electronic charts.
Identify specific data elements that will need to be entered into
the new EHR and if there are items that will be scanned.
6. Understand what data elements may be migrated from your
old system to your new one, such as patient demographics or
provider schedule information. Sometimes, being selective with
which data or how much data you want to migrate can influence
the ease of transition.
7. Identify concerns and obstacles regarding privacy and
security and create a plan to address them. It is essential to
emphasize the importance of privacy and security when
transitioning to EHRs.
e. Achieve Meaningful Use
The Medicare and Medicaid EHR Incentive Programs provide a
financial incentive for achieving "meaningful use", which is the
use of certified EHR technology to achieve health and
efficiency goals. This section provides an overview of the Stage
1 and Stage 2 EHR meaningful use core and menu objectives for
eligible professionals (EPs) as outlined by CMS – which are
intended to set a baseline for electronic data capture and
information sharing.
The meaningful use objectives are grouped into five patient-
driven domains that relate to health outcomes policy priorities.
As depicted in the dashboards below, each core and menu
10. objective is aligned to one of the following domains:
· Improve Quality, Safety, Efficiency
· Engage Patients & Families
· Improve Care Coordination
· Improve Public and Population Health
· Ensure Privacy and Security for Personal Health Information

HAS-6197 Health Information System and Electronic Health
Record: Week 5
Administrative and Structural Analysis of an Electronic Health
Claim Management: Chapters 9 &10
Objective: In this assignment you are request to you will
describe, analyze and apply process of creating claims, locating
specific claim, methods used to submit electronic claims, and
the claim determination process used by health plans.
ASSIGNMENT GUIDELINES (10%):
Students will judgmentally evaluate the readings from Chapter 9
and 10 on your textbook and from the article assigned for week
13. 5. The Purpose of this Administrative and Structural Analysis of
an Electronic Health Claim Management is to describes the
potential benefits of EHRs that include clinical outcomes (eg,
improved quality, reduced medical errors), organizational
outcomes (eg, financial and operational benefits), and societal
outcomes (eg, improved ability to conduct research, improved
population health, reduced costs). Despite these benefits,
studies in the literature highlight drawbacks associated with
EHRs, which include the high upfront acquisition costs, ongoing
maintenance costs, and disruptions to workflows that contribute
to temporary losses in productivity that are the result of
learning a new system. Moreover, EHRs are associated with
potential perceived privacy concerns among patients, which are
further addressed legislatively in the HITECH Act. Overall,
experts and policymakers believe that significant benefits to
patients and society can be realized when EHRs are widely
adopted and used in a “meaningful” way.
You need to develop a 4-5-page paper long including title page
and references page reproducing your understanding and
capability to relate the readings to claim management. Each
paper must be typewritten with 12-point font and double-spaced
with standard margins. Follow APA style 7th format when
referring to the selected articles and include a reference page.
EACH PAPER SHOULD INCLUDE THE FOLLOWING:
1. Introduction (25%) Provide a brief synopsis of the meaning
(not a description) of each Chapter and articles you read, in
your own words.
2. Your Strategies (50%)
a. Briefly compare the CMS-1500 paper claim and the 837
