research concepts for HIM (health information management) – APPLYING RESEARCH TO PRACTICE

 

we are examining the ways research techniques can be applied to HIM practice. Think about the examples in the texts and describe, in your own words, a project that could be done by an HIM professional that would use the techniques described in the chapter.

For example: the hospital may want to implement front-end speech recognition for dictating progress notes. The HIM manager could conduct brainstorming sessions with a multi-disciplinary team, both in the concept and program development stages. Surveys of area hospitals could be used to determine how other hospitals are handling this issue. Physicians could be engaged by focus groups. Measurements for success could be developed and tracked.
