OVERALL COMMENTS

Perla,

Thank you for your work on this assessment. You did a great job describing the importance of security, privacy, and confidentially laws related to protecting sensitive electronic health information that govern the interdisciplinary team in your staff update. There should be specific examples for your staff. What should they do to protect information? Prevent a breach on social media?  Be selective about the content you choose to include in your update so you can meet the page length requirement. Include need-to-know information. Omit nice-to-know information.  Please read the comments within the paper and the scoring guide. The section on collaboration is missing. You must have a score of Basic or above on each criterion in order to pass the course. When you resubmit, please HIGHLIGHT the revisions.

Good luck! 

Dr. Weeks
