Part Competency Assessed

Instructions

1

Apply data extraction

methodologies

Locate research on LOS, death, birth, and infection rates within a hospital by using the Internet or Kaplan University Library. Interpret the types of data used for healthcare statistics by analyzing the formulas. Next, with an understanding of the types of data necessary for clinical, administrative, and financial reports, demonstrate knowledge of data extraction methods by developing a literature review on the capture, storage, and retrieval of healthcare data for a large hospital system. In your literature review, make sure to indicate the considerations related to data capture tools and technologies (i.e., forms, computer screens, templates, and other health record documentation tools).

2

Apply principles of

research and clinical literature evaluation to improve outcomes

Consider that a large hospital--for which you serve as a Director of Health Information--has ongoing issues with utilization rates. Use the Kaplan University Library to locate peer-reviewed research on best practices with hospital utilization. Apply knowledge-based research techniques to compose a brief literature review on improving outcomes of hospital utilization--including three (3) peer-reviewed studies published within the last 5 years. Integrate into your response a reflection on each study's research methodology (i.e., qualitative, quantitative, mixed-methods, outcomes).

3 Perform quality assessment including

quality management, data quality, and identification of best

practices for health information systems

Continue your literature view with another section on data quality assessment and integrity. Locate one (1) peer-reviewed study on disease management process (i.e., case management, critical paths, and care coordination); one (1) peer-reviewed study on outcomes measurement (i.e., patient as patient, customer satisfaction, and disease specific); and one (1) peer-reviewed study on patient and organization safety initiatives. Differentiate three (3) best practices in performing quality assessment by comparing and contrasting each approach.

4 Model policy

initiatives that influence data integrity

Based on your literature review, analyze data integrity policies and procedures that could be relevant to a large hospital in your state. Model these policies through examples on the influence on data integrity.

5 Analyze workflow processes and

responsibilities to meet organizational needs

Analyze workflow reengineering and workflow design techniques by critiquing three (3) peer-reviewed studies on workflow within a healthcare setting. Place your analysis within the literature review.

6 Evaluate staffing

levels and productivity, and provide feedback to

staff regarding performance

Search the literature for scholarly sources regarding staffing levels and productivity within a healthcare setting. Surmise the best practices in performance standards prevalent throughout the literature. Critique the methods of staffing used to improve productivity within the literature review. Next, reflect on how you would coach staff who show low levels of productivity within a health information department.

7 Identify departmental and organizational survey readiness for

accreditation, licensing, and/or certification processes

In a separate section of your literature review, interpret ten (10) accreditation standards that relate to utilization (i.e., TJC, NCQA, CARF, CHAP, URAC, CoP, etc.). Provide examples that connect the accreditation standards to departmental and organizational survey readiness for accreditation, licensing, and/or certification processes.
