Unit 6 Assignment Instructions

Part I: Personal Health Records

Personalized medicine is an innovation in the care and treatment of patients that brings to the forefront the unlimited possibilities of health information technology when utilized to its fullest. Personal Health Records (PHRs) provides patients and medical professionals a means to share information, which in turns, helps to improve the quality of care. The ability to understand obtain, process and understand health information within PHRs requires that individuals have a certain level of health literacy. 

You will create a PowerPoint presentation with speaking notes that covers the following criteria:

  • How can health care bridge the gap between those who are internet savvy and those who are not?
  • What demographic and socioeconomic factors affect eHealth access and literacy; what efforts are being made in healthcare to address these factors?
  • Consider the following, in thinking about a PHR that patients can use to annotate their EHR data (e.g., comment on the problem list), what steps do you think patients will likely take to correct their data? 

Part II: Natural Language Processing

Natural Language Processing (NLP), is not a new technology, but it is one that is not yet fully developed. Many healthcare professionals and organizations are working diligently on how to combine NLP with use in EMRs.

  • What is NLP?
  • What possible disadvantages will occur due to using NLP technology?
  • What are the barriers to using NLP?
  • What possible benefits will NLP provide to medical professionals and organizations?
  • How can NLP benefit the patient experience?

Continue your presentation with an example answer to the questions above. You will need to ensure that you provide proper reference supports to show your interns that you have used evidence to support your answers. A title slide and reference slide is required.
