HIM4650 Decision Support and Quality Management in Health Information Management.

Unit 6 Discussion

DQ1 Role of Standards and Guidelines

Consider these questions regarding the role of standards and guidelines in managing health data:

How do you imagine standards and guidelines will be used in the next few decades?

Will widespread implementation of standards allow for the compatibility needed to allow access to large pools of clinical data needed for some kinds of clinical decision support?

How will the widespread availability of standardized health data impact the kinds of clinical decision support systems that can be created?

Imagine that, in your data analyst role, you are asked to give a presentation on the future role of standards and guidelines in health care. Outline the main points and supporting arguments you would include in your presentation.

DQ2 Medical Credentialing

Medical staff must maintain credentials to assure that they are properly trained and licensed to provide safe medical care. The credentialing process is also used to enforce standards of practice and confirm competent care. Write a post in which you discuss how the medical staff credentialing process may interconnect with the use of CDS systems.
