Category: Health informatics
Select one type of clinical decision support system and discuss how it can improve quality and efficiency in patient care and how it aligns promoting Interoperability.
Instructions:
As a health informatics consultant, you have been asked to research clinical decision support (CDS) tools for a local health organization. With the Advancing Care Information Program and the increasing need to provide increased care value, the appropriate use of CDS is an institutional priority. The current CDS available at the institution consists primarily of off-the-shelf drug interaction and drug-allergy alerting, which is the source of significant clinician complaints due to the rate of false-positive alerts.
You have been asked to evaluate the current system and devise a strategic plan for CDS for the organization. You will create a presentation that covers the following criteria:
Introduction & Objectives
Identify the key evaluation question for this project.
Describe the stakeholders.
Identify & Describe CDS Tools.
Describe the benefits of using CDS and how it supports decision making.
Describe the approaches you would use to ensure that all aspects of patient care were considered when developing a CDS system.
Discuss how you would prioritize the efforts of your CDS team.
What theory is most appropriate; why? (Change theory, system theory, information theory and learning theory)
Requirements
Your presentation should be 10 content slides and be in your own words.
You should include at least five peer-reviewed sources.
Your presentation should be in APA format.
You will present your presentation using Screencast-O-Matic, YouTube, Screencastify or similar applications.
Your presentation should be no longer than 10 minutes.
Imagine that you are a project manager with a large hospital. You are responsible for facilitating the selection of a new healthcare information system. You are asked to preview the Epic EHR, Allscripts MyWay EMR, and Waiting Room Solutions demos.
Explore all of the product modules and functions, such as the user-friendliness (interface and ease of use), patient search functionality, release of information and retrieval, record tracking, web-based standards, internet and intranet use, regulatory requirements, etc.
Create a comparison table or matrix for the various functions.
In a 2-3 page paper, provide an assessment and explanation of how product features would or would not potentially support interoperability and basic integration standards.
Provide a recommendation for a new healthcare information system based on your assessment of each product.
Your paper should be in APA format.
Submit the comparison table and paper.

I need someone to write me an essay following this rubric. It cannot be plagiarized at all. My professor uses turn it in. My topic for the essay is the Wellstar Health Services Data Breach-Georgia (This is a little summary of it.)
On February 7, 2022, Wellstar Health System found out there was a data breach through email. Someone unauthorized had gained access to two different email accounts. PHI was obtained. The breach had happened two months prior and they found out in February. The PHI was accessed between December 6, 2021, and January 3, 2022.Once they found out they changed the passwords and locked the emails.
prepare the final report and presentation.
Develop a written paper that will provide the following sections:
Data Breach Overview: Provide an overview of the data breach incident you selected, the healthcare organization that it occurred at, and indicate if any prior data incidents occurred in that organization previously (Use references to support your claims).
Cybersecurity Failures: Analyze the cybersecurity failures and identify the specific dimension(s) of cybersecurity and their related principles (Hint: McCumber Cube and it’s dimensions + relevant principles on each dimension!) that have been violated during the identified healthcare data breach incident (Use references to support your claims).
Cyber Risk Management: search for a recent industry and/or government reports (i.e. less than three years old) and in your own words (no quotes, but use references to support your claims) identify the cyber risk management factors (Likelihood – also known as ‘rate of occurrence’ + estimated impact) associated with the specific cyber incident that occurred for the healthcare organization you’re investigating. (Use references to support your claims). Include a simple table to highlight the cyber threat, risk description, likelihood, impact, and actions proposed to mitigate that cyber threat in the future.
Describe the three-part test for determining whether the information breached includes PHI: state the answer in your own words (no quotes, use references to support your claims), provide the analysis for each of the three parts test (similar to the second case analysis), was there a HIPAA violation in the particular breach incident? What are the appropriate measures that the healthcare organization should take to mitigate the risk of another data breach incident in the future?
Describe the appropriate breach notification that is required by HIPAA security and privacy. Hint: chapter 3
Conclusion: In your own words (no quotes!!!), provide a conclusion that summarizes the whole paper.
* Provide at least seven different references, (two or more) academic peer-reviewed, (one or more) government sources and (one or more) industry
In particular, you will need to develop a five- to seven-page document as the final report (not more!) that outlines each of the sections above and provides the details to address the points above.
Format:
All text in the proposal should be word-processed (letter or correspondence-quality font), New Times Roman or Calibri, 12 point, double space and standard margins. The body of the proposal should be five- to seven-pages long (not including title page, Table of Contents, Reference List, & Certificate of Authorship).
The following information should also be included:
Title page:
Assignment Name and Number
Name and NSU e-mail
Professor’s name
Class Name and Number (e.g. BSHI-3002 term. year)
Due date
The report should also be done professionally and should include:
Table of Contents (with sections & page numbers identified – Ensure the context text starts on page 1, frontmatter shouldn’t be counted in page numbers)
Page numbers on all pages
Clear and consistent headings of all sections
No running heads
Reference List following APA (At least seven different references)

College Policy On Standards of Academic Integrity:
Academic integrity is highly valued by the faculty and program, and this course will enforce a firm stand on submitting original work. Acts of plagiarism, whether intentional or accidental, are subject to disciplinary action as a violation of academic integrity. A student who breaches the Code of Conduct may receive academic penalties up to and including dismissal from the program. There is an orientation module in Canvas that covers the general topics to be sure you are aware of various forms of plagiarism, intentional and unintentional. You will also note that an external tool called Turnitin will be attached to written work to check for a similarity index. Copying your own work from another class or sharing materials between students for individual assignments are forms of plagiarism. Working with the Writing and Communications Center may help you avoid accidental situations. In addition, good reference citation, quoting and proper paraphrasing will also enhance your results.
Students’ use of generative artificial intelligence (e.g., ChatGPT, Google Bard, Dall-E, Midjourney, etc.) or similar resources on any coursework or academic assessments without the prior permission of their faculty member, or the use of these resources in any way that violates the academic standards of NSU and/or a student’s academic program, is expressly prohibited.
