My topic

Health Information Technology/EMR Policy and Procedure

The Comprehensive Final Project (Assignment #4) has been
designed for the student to identify federal and state policy roots in a
specific health services organization. Each student will select a specific management
area for a specific organization. The student will identify a health services
setting where they have access to the policy manual (or a sample policy
manual). The setting may include a single location or an organization with many
types of services and many service delivery settings. Select one of the
following health management areas where you will map out and describe four (4)
organizational policies (four separate policies, or MAJOR parts of a
comprehensive policy – for example, HR Policy covering all aspects of HR in the
organization) linked to federal or state legislative mandates:

• Facilities
Planning and Maintenance

• Occupational
Health & Safety

• Prevention
Programs for Health Disparities

• Payment
Processing and Billing

• Human
Resources

• Health
Information Technology and EMR

• Pharmacy
Services

• Laboratory
Services

• Supply
Chain Medical Equipment/Technology

• Patient/Customer
and Community Relations

• Strategic
Planning and New Service Development

• Advertising
or Marketing

• Internal
Quality Control

• Direct
Patient Care

In Week Six, you need to submit a topic area and associated
health services organization in the Assignment Four Topic Selection folder in
LEO. Note that the same topic area/organization cannot be used by any two
students. Unless the professor reaches out to you directly, your chosen topic
is approved.

Prepare a PowerPoint presentation with no more than 18
content slides (students may utilize the Notes feature to provide additional
context, if needed). A cover and reference slide must be provided (these do not
count towards the maximum slides). Draw on what you have learned throughout the
class to provide: a summary of each organizational policy, the federal/state
legislative roots for each policy (by name and statute), any pending changes to
the federal/state legislation, and your suggested performance metrics – how
should the organizational monitor or gauge success of the policy.

Note: the four
policies you choose should address, either directly or indirectly, four federal
or state legislations, or four aspects/provisions of one overall federal or
state legislation

A good approach to the final project would be to allocate
four slides to each of the four policies, each slide addressing one of the four
bolded topics above for each policy. For example, title slide, introduction
slide, then four slides on policy one (one slide for each of the bolded topics
above), four slides on policy two…… etc.…. conclusion slide and then a
resources slide.

A preliminary outline using word processing software (e.g.,
Microsoft Word) must be uploaded/posted by Sunday of Week Seven in the
dedicated discussion for both instructor and peer review.
