Cite your references.

Assignment 3

One of the main obstacles faced by large healthcare organizations is the inability of the various health information systems to communicate with one another. As an example, a financial system used for patient check-in may not necessarily be compatible with a system that is used for discharge. Conduct some research regarding this dilemma. In a 3 page APA formatted paper, address the following questions: What is currently being done about this incompatibility? Is the inability to communicate within systems impacting patient care? Is it negatively impacting reimbursement? Do large providers need full time technical support available? To assist with this assignment, it may be beneficial to find a case study related to this problem. Cite your references appropriately.

Regardless if this is an entirely accurate statement, there is no doubt that the government is heavily involved in the regulation of healthcare. In a 3-page research paper, analyze the current state of health information technology regulations in the United States. From where do these regulations stem? What role do lobbying groups and politics play in the development of regulations? Are they effective in keeping patient information safe? Be sure to cite your sources appropriately.
