Week 8 Assignment  

Data Flow Through the Patient Healthcare Journey

The purpose of this assignment is to make you aware of how patient data travels with the patient and/or is generated based on events such as getting an x-ray or having surgery.

It’s a major holiday.  Your family member is complaining of pain on their left side. This is usually a symptom of appendix issues.  Your doctor’s office is closed for the holiday. It is likely that the person will require admission to the hospital and require surgery. Think about the information that will be collected from you and throughout the hospital stay.

Use this infographic to help as you list the pieces of data that will likely be collected throughout the hospital journey. For each piece of data, identify which EHR system and which outside entity may need the information. The first line of the chart has been filled out as an example.

After completing this assignment, look at your table and identify where data may be vulnerable to cyber threats, both internally and externally. Include a short description of these vulnerabilities (1 paragraph).
