For a hospital planning to open a portal for its physicians to access their transcribed reports, lab results, and potentially other applications, an important element of technology that should be considered is: Data repository 17. Why is it important to plot a migration path to an EHR? EHR is a journey with many components 18. A physician's office does not have a variety of functionality, so they chose to purchase from one vendor for all of their systems. This is what type of acquisition strategy?

Case Analysis of Patient Flow at Brigham and Women's Hospital Table of Contents Executive Summary ------------------------------------------ 3 Organization Profile ------------------------------------------ 4 Critical Issues ------------------------------------------ 4 Bed Management ------------------------------------------ 5 Internal Communication ------------------------------------------ 9 Protocol Noncompliance ------------------------------------------ 13 References & Appendices ------------------------------------------ 16 Executive Summary This report was commissioned to examine the issue of patient flow from the emergency department (ED) to the intensive care unit (ICU) at Brigham and Women’s Hospital (BWH). Brigham and Women’s Hospital has seen demand for their services grow in the last few years. This has placed a strain on their resources and their flow of patients from ED to the ICU has suffered. This has resulted in patients having an abnormally long wait time. The team has determined that the critical issues at play include bed management and capacity, noncompliance with current hospital protocols, as well as an inefficient communication system.
D&E Medical Center eThomas Training Steven P. Monato CMGT410 March 30, 2013 Arthur Ward D&E Medical Center eThomas Training D&E Medical Center will be implementing a new Electronic Medical Record keeping system. This system will be an upgrade from their current software in place, dThomas. The eThomas system integrates all the familiar features found in the dThomas system, but expounds on the functionality of the software by implementing a Graphical User Interface. The goals of upgrading the current system, dThomas, are as follows: • Increase in Patient visits • Accurate Financial reporting • Ability to digitally duplicate eprescriptions • Decrease in scheduling conflicts Management at D&E Medical Center has conferred with Genius
Although it is not as common to start implementation with the front office, beginning a rollout with clinical applications would send a positive message to physicians that the new system was integral to the organizations core strategy rather than just an administrative exercise. 2. Plan a controlled and staggered rollout in the clinics, but have aggressive goals to quickly move implementation to the hospitals, and then to the back office. SHC is a collaborative institution that tends to work on a

While ERP’s are not necessarily well-designed to handle big data, it is my recommendation that both be used parallel to one another for the most benefit. By using each system to feed the other, the hospital ensures sufficient patient data is obtained without inundating the system with useless or superfluous information, such as would be the case if the two systems were to be fully integrated. For example, each time a patient is seen any resulting information would be put in to the ERP system. That data would then be transferred to whatever large data storage system the hospital uses from the ERP system. When the patient returns for future treatment, that information is again accessed in the patient history, most likely in the large data storage, and transferred to the ERP system for use and update.
This could be via a taped session, verbally, written, group or individual handover. @00040644 It is not taught formally during training and requires skill to be able to provide the relevant Information necessary to provide continuity of care (Scovell 2010). Evans (2008) describes the handover as almost a religious rite. The content and function of it varying significantly between clinical areas. On the authors ward the nursing handover is communicated away from the patients in an office with some nurses taking notes.

However, the recent patterns of MP and associated factors in diabetes mellitus treatment particularly in Indonesia need to be investigated more closely. Although the prevalence is high, there is no enough information available regarding treatment seeking behavior in West Java. The health-care seeking behavior is still limited to the traditional view of health (i.e., visits to health-care institutions and health care practitioners; bought medication themselves instead of spending the time to attend specialist diabetes clinic). For many urban residents general practitioners are their first contact point, they usually visit primary healthcare service, but for rural residents it is the norm for them to go visit a midwife, who is a primary health-care giver in most rural areas, or a traditional medical practitioner depending on the type of
