PLEASE POINT EACH QUESTION SEPARATELY

Question 1       (1 PAGE)

Each healthcare organization has its own internal policies related to departmental processes. Having Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) on the selection steering committee is a very important aspect of the process. Hospitals are poor at including SMEs at the executive decision-making level. This is a risk as those who will use the system should have a voice in its selection. Workflow processes can be significantly impacted by the EHR and are poorly evaluated by those who are not end-users.

This article, Barriers to Electronic Health Record System Implementation and Information Systems Resources: A Structured Review, concisely summarizes multiple articles that yielded 57 barriers to the implementation of EHR systems.

Justify the impact of the expense of human capital on the selection of an EHR. 

Include the following aspects in the discussion:

1) Use Chapter 9 from the text (Strategic Planning, Project Management, and Health Information Technology Selection) and any other outside resources you find helpful

2) Select two functions in the project management process that must be considered during the EHR selection activity.

3) Explain the importance of assessing the internal and external environments during the planning process.

4) Discuss the value of strategic planning in health information technology (HIT), and explain why it is important.

5) Provide your personal perspective on what the role of the SME in the HIT section process should be.
