Module 2 – Case

APPLICATION OF HEALTH CARE INFORMATION SYSTEMS

Assignment Overview

Health care information systems implementation such as electronic health records (EHRs) require detailed planning, well-trained staff, and upper-management support in order to achieve a successful implementation. In addition, comprehending barriers to implementation and previous implementation failures is important to fully understand.

Case Assignment

In addition to your assigned reading, conduct a literature review of health care organizations that have implemented an EHR. Identify one health care organization in particular that has implemented an EHR. Create a 12- to 15-slide (not including title slide and reference slides) PowerPoint presentation on the implementation of an EHR within a health care organization. Provide a brief introduction about the health care organization, what type of EHR they selected, and their process for implementation (this should cover from the analysis phase to implementation). In addition, discuss some of the challenges they faced and how they overcame them. Finally, discuss any improvements in patient outcomes that the health care organization states (If the organization does not state any, simply put that on your slide.)

Assignment Expectations

1. Submit a 12- to 15-slide (not including title slide and reference slides) PowerPoint presentation on the health care organization you have selected.
