Impact of Health Information Technology on Patient

The publication of the original Institute of Medication report has increased development and health information technology with different degrees of evidence concerning the effect of health information technology on the patient’s safety. As a newly employed Chief Information Governance Officer in healthcare, I will develop strategies that will help provide the governance information to healthcare. They will need to employ some new staff that we are going to work together to ensure patient health is safely guided.

Patient safety is a critical factor in every healthcare; the staff involved should continually develop ways to avoid, prevent, and ameliorate the adverse outcomes in medicine reports; institutions are requested to develop and test the new technology, which could help reduce the errors in medical departments. Another report in 2002 was done using the technology to help change and transform the healthcare environment hence achieving better care.

This paper will discuss the about a new department that need to be created, role of a newly appointed chief information Governance office, data that was collected by the healthcare in the past 50 years in its operation, evaluate and come up with conclusion, build better information technology that will help safeguard the health record of the patients, implement better methods to store patient's information, get rid of duplication of information experienced in the administration records and implement the policy that will lead to proper handling of the patient information.

The chief information Governance office will develop marketing strategies to help the healthcare increase clients, using different social media to help create awareness of their services. Develop a training session that will empower the workers on the required policy in the health facilities and legal actions services. To develop a matrix as Chief Information Governance officer, he will ensure good leadership, governance, and strategic plan are put in place, resulting in the patient's safety, strategic and articulate plan against measured progress. The Chief Information Governance officer will also access the current evidence on the effect of different health information technology that can lead to patient safety improvement outcomes and ensure trust compliance with trust policy.
