respond to and indicate which option you chose. <\/p>\n
Option A<\/b>: General Hospital has determined that within three years, the
paper-based health record it currently uses will be replaced with an electronic
health record.\u00a0 General prefers to have a vendor install a computer system
that allows for some tailoring to its institutional needs.\u00a0 You are a
member of a committee that will evaluate and select the computer system. (Case

2.\u00a0What legal issues should you raise to
the committee and hospital about possible barriers and problems to implementing
an electronic health record? <\/p>\n
3.\u00a0Assuming that those barriers and problems are resolved,
what legal issues should you address with the committee and hospital in the
evaluation and selection process? <\/p>\n
Option B<\/b>: Imagine you are a health information manager closely involved
with risk management at General Hospital, a teaching institution.\u00a0
Beginning this July, the hospital will incorporate presentations by hospital
employees into its Grand Rounds series of lectures.\u00a0 You have been asked
to lecture covering risk management. Compose a presentation addressing the
legal aspects of risk management, particularly concentrating on patient record
requirements and incident reports. (Case Study, p. 275)<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

record requirements and incident reports?<\/p>\n
3.\u00a0What are the current trends in risk management?<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
