Organization Needs

Government laws and regulations have been broken because of Featherfall Medical Center's outdated technology. Staffs are not only out of date in terms of skills, but the technology itself is also outdated. Discrepancies in government regulations, operational problems, and ethical dilemmas stemming from poor technology implementation have all cost the organization money. Featherfall's technological needs have been whittled down to Alert (Admission, Discharge, and Transfer ADT') and Intel, two eligible vendors (SOA Expressway for Healthcare). These systems need to satisfy three key goals: to meet personnel demands, protect the integrity of healthcare, and meet government standards. Concerns about the expense of implementing and maintaining a new system are high because Featherfall contains consequences for earlier infractions. Choosing a new computer system for Featherfall Medical Center is the right decision. Due to legislative rules, the medical center's obsolete system has severely impacted the organization's finances. In addition, they have problems maintaining the accuracy of their medical records. Some sectors suffer from a lack of training and clear communication channels. The medical center's new system must meet HIPAA compliance rules, communicate effectively amongst itself, be user-friendly for the personnel, and be under governmental regulations to be accepted.

Technology System Recommendations

In my opinion, Intel is the best new technology for Featherfall Medical Center (SOA Expressway for Healthcare). For Featherfall Medical Center, I feel Intel is an attractive choice because the system is simple to use and can be rapidly adopted into regular tasks. The technology will also allow for more outstanding communication between the staff. It will be easier to manage patient care with Intel since the system will produce discharge and transfer lists. In addition, the system can produce records of patients by their doctors and patients by their departments. The system is password-protected and features multiple levels of security. HIPAA compliance has not yet been achieved, but UHDDS is in place and working as intended. The next release will meet HIPAA regulations (Durcevic, 2019). Because of Intel's size and wealth of knowledge, you can be assured that your health information is in good hands.

Financial Resources

Intel is more expensive than the Alert (ADT) system, but it has the greater experience. As a company around for 30 years, Intel has 364 medical systems in use. There was a total cost of $2,028,000 for Intel and $1,587,000 for Alert. Compared to Alert, Intel was $441,000 more expensive (SNHU, 2019). Featherfall Medical Center will benefit from Intel's knowledge and resources as a larger firm. System costs more, but it will help with compliance, ethics, and governance at the medical center.

Monitor Resources

Intel uses Ad-hoc reporting to keep tabs on how its innovative health information system is being used (Durcevic, 2019). It is possible to "address crucial business problems promptly by developing an autonomous analysis, without the need of waiting for standard analysis" using ad-hoc reporting. Ad hoc reports aid in the decision-making process by highlighting the most critical aspects of the organization's growth and sustainability. Intel also generates regular reports to keep tabs on how the new system is used.

Time Resource

Featherfall Medical Center can devote its resources to implementing a new health informatics system because of its location (Durcevic, 2019). Featherfall can provide staff training on the new system to familiarize them with its workings. Keeping an eye on the new platform's success and seeing whether there have been any sound effects from adopting the technology is a priority for them. They may also look at what they can do to improve the agency and its patients.
