This was supposed to be two separate policies, one for paper records and one for emails, and you did them in one policy. Be sure to be looking at the rubrics and instructions in each course announcement! Let me know if questions on where this is. Written policy establishing rules for distribution and retention of paper records with patient data in hospital. - A lot of your policy was written more like a paper about "how to" write a policy rather than the policy itself. This should just be a policy on what to do with your paper medical records. How will you distribute paper medical records and how long will you retain them? It only should cover patient medical records, no other kind. For retention, you would have different retention levels for different kinds of patient records, usually dependent on state law. (3/10), Create a version of this policy for how staff use email with patient data. Including how email messages should be retained. Note this should include encryption, which you did. Again, it looks like you wrote a paper about "how to" do an email retention policy, rather than writing an email retention policy. So you really did not write an email retention policy. Also, the table you had in your email section is not a table that you really could use to retain information contained within email. Note that email should not be used for communication meant to be part of the patient's medical record if it can be helped but rather a communication tool within the EHR should be used. I am giving you some points for doing research on how to write a policy. (4/10), Select and describe at least 1 method that can be used to audit to determine if policy is being adhered to. I did not see that this part was addressed. This was to be part of your email policy. (0/10) Spelling/grammar (5/5) It seems like you did not understand this assignment. If you would like to read the instructions again, including the Course Announcement information and rubric, and resubmit, writing two POLICIES that cover the requirements in the rubric, I will accept to regrade - if you have specific questions or want me to explain further please email me and let me know.
