Unit 1 Discussion

DQ1 Integrating Clinical Decision Support Systems.

Imagine that you are asked to evaluate the benefits of implementing a decision support system that is meant to identify a rare cardiac condition. This would be the first clinical decision support system implemented by the hospital and you want to begin by developing a sound strategy for how the system will integrate with the rest of the IT infrastructure:

What are the relative advantages and disadvantages associated with the relationship between the developer and the organization?

If you recommend the implementation, how will you frame the project to protect the hospital if the chief of cardiology chooses to work elsewhere in the future?

What general considerations related to intellectual property could complicate the use of these systems?

DQ2 The Five “Rights” of Clinical Decision Support Systems

The framework for clinical decision support focuses on five rights to improve decisions and outcomes. Based on your readings this week, including the AHIMA article on the Five Rights of Clinical Decision Support, explain how the “rights” can contribute to quality healthcare services. Provide at least one example to support your thought.

To the right people,

In the right intervention formats,
