HIM 2 - Chp. 8, Health Information Systems

  • What is a Decision Support System (DSS)?

    An interactive system that helps managers, physicians solve problems and make decisions.

    Ex. Clinical DSS that alerts physicians when lab results are outside the normal range.

  • Health Information Management Systems help manage the workflow and improve processes. Give some examples.

    - Coding and abstracting

    - Release of Information

    - Deficiency Systems (allows to keep track of delinquent records)

  • What is a Computerized Provider Order Entry Systems (CPOE)?

    A provider inputs an order into a computerized system so that it can be relayed to people capable of fulfilling said orders.

  • What are some benefits to integrating disparate (different) information systems (so that we can have one interoperable system)?

    - reduced costs

    - timely and efficient access to complete the health record

    - allows physicians access to previous test results

    - improved patient safety through more timely diagnosis and treatment

  • Describe the steps for the strategic planning for information systems.

    1. Develop mission, vision and values (so that the new system matches the goals of the hospital/facility)

    2. SWOT analysis (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats)

    3. Define key issues throughout the process (time, training, money)

    4. Determine priorities

    5. Develop goals and objectives (aligns with the first step)

    6. Develop action plans for each objective

    7. Develop measures/metrics to evaluate achievement of objectives

  • When acquiring systems you can either get it ___ or ___.

    off the shelf (buying from another party) or in house development

  • When selecting systems off the shelf what are some actions you can take to validate the system?

    - Request for Information (RFI)

    - Request for Proposal (RFP)

  • What are the steps for the implementation of an information system?

    - Documentation

    - Training

    - Go live (deployment of the system)

    - Celebrate

    - Evaluation

    - Maintenance and upgrades

  • A health care information system is the combination of ___.

    - information

    - technology

    - people

    - processes

  • A health care information system is composed of 2 types of information. Name them.

    Administrative:

    - Financial

    - Demographics

    Clinical:

    - EMR

    - Patient health information

  • Information systems and information technology are used interchangeable. True or false?

    True

  • The ease in which health care providers are able to enter data into the system refers to:

    Data input

  • Use of structured data entry using a defined vocabulary rather than free text can hinder the coding of data for future retrieval and use. True or false?

    False; because it can help with standards.

  • What is the longest stage of the system development life cycle?

    Maintenance

  • What is one of the best ways to get staff to accept a new system and understand its benefits?

    Give them appropriate training.
