It creates standards that allow healthcare information to be communicated across and between healthcare enterprises and communities. HL7 standards facilitate the exchange of clinical and administrative data among health information systems. Specifically, HL7 provides a comprehensive framework and related standards for the exchange, integration, sharing, and retrieval of electronic health information that supports clinical practice and the management, delivery, and evaluation of health services. HL7 encompasses the complete life cycle of a standards specification including the development, adoption, market recognition, utilization, and adherence.2. The HL7 standards are produced by the HL7, and are adopted by other standards issuing bodies as mention above. OSI standards can be found in detail at the International Telecommunications Union (ITU-T) cite as the X.200-series of…

Health information exchange (HIE) allows doctors, nurses, pharmacists, other health care providers and patients to appropriately access and securely share a patient’s vital medical information electronically. The HIE helps to improve the speed, quality, safety and cost of patient care and sharing of patient information. By electronically exchanging information, it can be standardized which can make data transferring seamlessly and can be integrated into the patient’s electronic health record (EHR). “The goal of health information exchange is…
Health Information Exchange (HIE) refers to the process of reliable and interoperable electronic health-related information sharing conducted in a manner that protects the confidentiality, privacy, and security of the information. Electronic health information exchange (HIE) allows doctors, nurses, pharmacists, other health care providers and patients to appropriately access and securely share a patient’s vital medical information electronically—improving the speed, quality, safety and cost of patient care. Despite the widespread availability of secure electronic data transfer, most Americans’ medical information is stored on paper—in filing cabinets at various medical offices, or in boxes and folders in patients’…

Modern health information systems are very complex; several models address the architecture of modern health information exchanges. The centralized model and the decentralized model are just two of the several models of modern health information systems. The centralized modern health information exchange model stores patient information in one centralized location. The centralized model allows single database inquiries into the system. A centralized health information exchange model is very quick in information delivery. Information changes require multiple transactions and do not occur in a time fashion. Decentralized or Federal model of health information exchange system is a different information exchange model. The federal or decentralized…
The Health information exchange or also known as HIE is the sending of healthcare-related data electronically to facilities, health information organizations and government agencies according to national standards. The goal is to be able to access and retrieve data more efficient, safer, and to improve the quality of care and patient safety and reduce healthcare costs.…
As the Communication Coordinator for this well known drug manufacturer, we will now debate and discus how we will get information to the public about the negative effects that our medications are causing the public. Our goal, as a vital asset to the public and medical community, is to convey all concerns to our community in a very sensitive and careful way. Using the power of newspapers, radio, internet, social networking and news related companies. The local news has already reported that a well-known public figure has been effected which goes against the health portability and accountability act. So as communication coordinator it is important to communicate this issue carefully, addressing the proper population, without losing business and the trust we created with our investors and consumers. Today in our meeting, we will discuss very important aspects of our company’s medical concerns and deciding which communication tactic is most suitable for this situation, while sticking to the very important and necessary HIPPAA guidelines.…

Technology changes everything is a phrase that is often used at my place of employment in order to change the perspective of how some people view its many different applications. In the case of our example with the; “Brain Saving Technologies, Inc and the T- Health institute: Medicine through videoconferencing, technology is being used to fundamentally change how medical treatment is delivered (O’Brien & Marakas, 2011). From the perspective of a medical patient I would be completely fine being diagnosed by a medical professional “thousands of miles” away from me dependent on known variables about their training and what types of systems are in place by the organizations to ensure legitimacy in their work.…
