EMR Presentation

 EMR systems fulfill many roles in a variety of health care settings. Like many technologies, EMRs may be under-utilized, or the users may not understand everything the system is capable of. As a manager, you are in the position to research and learn about EMRs, and then to educate others as to the benefits and limitations of these complex systems.

After several years working as a clinic manager in the hospital setting, you have been hired by one of your physicians who is leaving the hospital to start his own practice in the community. You will be the practice manager, and responsible for much of the research and development phases of this new venture. The physician has asked you to provide recommendations on what EMR to use. A few of your options include: pay for a license to use the system the hospital has in place - or - purchase a separate system entirely.

Create a PowerPoint presentation to illustrate your research and recommendations.

HR Related Question

  

Throughout the course of your professional careers--whether working directly in the Human Resource Management field or as the employee of an organization in any field--you will most likely need to conduct performance management. Performance management typically occurs through the setting and evaluation of goals that are set by either you, your supervisor/organization, or a combination of the two. Often, this process is connected to performance appraisals, which can impact promotions, raises, and your standing at the organization. They can also influence the day-to-day work that you do to ensure these goals are met.

Throughout this semester, you'll conduct your own performance management in 3 stages:

Stage 1. Initial goal(s) setting assignment

Stage 2. A mid-semester goal(s) checkin and update

Stage 3. A final performance management review of your goal(s) at the end of the semester

Auditor Visit

200 words

 Please complete the following steps for your discussion post and response.

 A good health care manager is always prepared, but there are times even the best managers will be caught by surprise and have to think on their feet.

 

You are the assistant manager of a small community clinic. It's a busy Monday morning, two of your staff called in sick: the clinic manager and a clerk. A Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) auditor walks up to the front desk. He provides his credentials and informs you he is there to inspect your medical records. You immediately feel nervous, as you realize there are several potential issues the auditor can notice. For example, you've been wanting to purchase computer monitor screens that provide security so patient information is not view able from side angles. With a tight budget, this was put on the back burner. Additionally, you just noticed one of your staff who is out sick left three u

As the manager of a coding and billing department, you are accountable to both the physicians you bill for, as well as the patients you serve. Ensuring claims are processed in a timely manner is one of your top priorities. You manage a staff of 10 coding and billing specialists.

  • List two performance improvement or evaluation methods you could institute to correct the issues at hand.

Homework Question

 This article deals basically with the dynamic environment of today's businesses. Despite all of the efforts a company puts forth to scan the environmental issues, crises can occur and have to be managed. The article first reviews several crises in businesses during the recent times, to define and identify the nature of a crisis. Then the anatomy of a crisis is presented schematically. Finally, by recommending certain preventive measures and interventions, the article concludes that acknowledging a crisis and communicating with the stakeholders are as important as planning the prevention, diagnosis, and intervention to solve crisis situations.
