WGU Est1 Task 3

Health information exchange or HIE allows doctors, nurses, pharmacists, and other health care providers and patients to access vital medical information. It also allows them to share medical information securely and electronically. HIE improves the speed, quality, safety, and the cost of patient care.For many years patient's files were stored using paper methods, transferring them by mail, fax or transferred it by hand to every appointment. Changing to electronic file improves the completeness of patient's medical records. It makes decision making of healthcare providers avoid readmissions, avoid medication errors, improve diagnosis, and decreases the amount of times test are reordered. There are other benefits to health information exchange

In this situation I would not want to shut down any of my community based organizations. Knowing that the closure would lead to loss of jobs and affect the community as a whole. For starters I would look over our budget to see if there where any areas that I could possibly cut cost or do without. Going by a budget can also help you minimize risk for future obstacles. By eliminating unnecessary cost hopefully will increase funding so that layoffs will not be my only option. Other options that I would consider is cutting hours during the slow hours of the day.

Although the veterans are asked their full name and last four of their social security, the scanning provides the added comfort of providing the security or safety for everyone involved. The outcome of this research will show data that will be analyzed pre and post implementation of the BMCA system, which the approach is to show a significant change in the medication error rate. The outcome will be based on pre and post implementation of the barcode medication system by measuring the medication error rate. There will be 100 veteran patients that will be assessed prior to implementation of the BCMA, and 100 veterans post implementations. Observers that will analyze administration errors, presence or absence of an error in the dose of medication administered during the observation period.

Statistical data was given to define the problem. That is the alarming number of children (9.8 millions) under 18 with no health insurance. (Sultz & Young, 2013, p.328). Also, the social, physical and academic problems children have to deal with because of lack of healthcare.

The donated money should be used in the eight grade math and reading classrooms because it will improve the focus and attention of the students. The students' self esteem will go up which will let them participate and do more to benefit the classrooms. They will also be less antsy because they will be focused on work, and not worrying about their uncomfortable seats.

Infectious diseases are the invasion of host organisms, (microbes) which can be invisible to the eyes. The microbes are also known as pathogens. A microbe infects an organism (which is known as the host of the microbe). In a human host, the microorganism causes a disease by either disrupting an important body process or by stimulating the immune system to mount a defensive reaction. The pathogen, interferes with the normal functioning of the host and can lead to chronic wounds, gangrene, loss of an infected limb, and even death. The host's response to infection is inflammation. An interaction between parasite and host, whereby the relationship is beneficial for the former but detrimental to the latter, is characterized as parasitism.

To ensure the wireless signal is transmitted to every corner of the office space I recommend routers set-up with 4 directional antennas and a centralized Omni-directional antenna. The use of 2.4 GHz routers will increase data transmission speed 460-600 Mbps and provide 11 channels per router to support decrease in network collisions and prevent data packet from being dropped (Lazar, n.d.). All computing devices must be equipped with latest Windows 10 for business and use VPN tunnels to remotely connect and send print jobs to the Austin location. In addition, all workstations must manually be configured with the latest printer drivers to recognize the device.

I have used the forums and looked around it a lot. I know how to navigate through the server 's forums and find and help out players on here. Also, the forum is a place where staff and players are able to interact with each other and communicate. It connects the players and knowing how to navigate and being able to help out on the forums is a big part of being a staff member. The forums is also a source of helping out players. Going under the "Help" section of the forums is a lot of posts on questions about the server. As a staff member, I will spend most of my time under the "Help" section and the "Staff Application" section so I can help out players with how they can write a better application and be able to help them out of the game.

Medicare is a federal government administered healthcare program originally implemented on July 1, 1996. Medicare has four parts (A, B, C and D) that provide different areas and differing levels of coverage. All Medicare programs provide coverage for cover healthcare services to qualifying individuals, known as beneficiaries, which includes Social Security beneficiaries over the age 65, people under 65 with certain disabilities, and people of all ages with end-stage renal disease. Each program provides coverage for medically necessary care and services to covered beneficiaries and has deductibles or copays for covered services. Medicare Part A, Medicare Part B and Medicare Part C all provide coverage for medical services. Medicare Part C and Part D provides prescription drug coverage.

You need to understand your existing network infrastructure to determine how well it can meet the needs of your deployment goals. By examining your existing infrastructure, you identify if you need to upgrade existing network components or purchase new network components. You should build up a complete map of the existing network by covering these areas:

is considering the replacement of the company 's data center by an outside service. The CIO of the company is investigating the possibility of a business process outsourcing project that would move the data center to the cloud. The data center has grown rapidly and the cost associated with its growth is mounting up every year and the cost of doing business might get out of control. Along with the rising hardware and software costs, the number of employees needed to run this data center has grown considerably. Bob Smith is looking for possible ways of outsourcing to keep with the organization need of data growth and also making sure that cost is within control and within acceptable limit. The CIO of the company has been evaluating three different options and is in the process of information gathering to understand the pros and cons of each alternative. There are many options from which to choose, including: a local data center, a well-known data center, and a data center that is located overseas. Each of these solutions has pros and cons, and one big issue is the security of the data. Some of the other issues include:

The following limitations and constraints have been identified from initial stages of this project, all the way to closing the project:
