Learning Outcome 3.1 Differentiate between health information management and health informatics.

Teaching Notes

Health informatics is the practice of information and knowledge management across clinical healthcare and public health domains. The new skills and positions in healthcare are part of an evolving area referred to as health informatics. The term medical informatics was widely adopted in the United States in the 1980s, when physicians, scientists, and engineers began to study how computer applications could be used in medical care. In 1989, the American Medical Informatics Association (AMIA) was established. The term medical informatics is not in frequent use today, having been replaced by the term health informatics. Health informatics touches every job in healthcare, whether it is a physician or nurse using an electronic health record, a coder of health records using computer-assisted coding, or case managers as they assist patients by using digitized records exchanged from several locations. At all levels of jobs in healthcare, many existing workers will need to develop new health informatics skills and knowledge. Healthcare Informatics Discussion

Learning Outcome 3.1 Differentiate between health information management and health informatics

Teaching Notes

Health informatics is built on top of this governed information and is focused on the resources, devices, and methods required for opti­mizing the acquisition, storage, retrieval, and use of clinical and related patient data. The tools include not only computers but also clinical guidelines, formal medical terminologies, and information and communication systems. Health infor­matics is concerned with the clinical setting and patient care, not business operations. The scope of work has been expanded, and increasingly the skills required include working with EHRs, but the focus of HIM continues to be the management and protection of patient data, both in a clinical setting and in secondary uses.

Learning Outcome 3.1 Differentiate between health information management and health informatics

Teaching Notes

The field of health informatics began with the study of how comput­ers could be used in clinical settings. It was narrow and specialized because of the domination of paper records. Computer screens were used for reading diagnostic tests, not for accessing entire patient records.

The adoption of information technology on the business side of healthcare, such as practice management, has been far quicker than on the clinical or patient encounter side. Many finance and business functions, such as the payment of claims by insurance companies and appointment scheduling, are highly automated.

Learning Outcome 3.2 Explain how integrated delivery systems are changing skill sets required for health information professionals.

 

Teaching Notes

 

The introduction of HIT into healthcare has disrupted the traditional workflow, because technology and data are being used in what was formerly a paper-based system. Workers are needed to manage this process, especially in organizations as complex as healthcare providers. An area of expertise has developed called change management to support this process. The healthcare system use of patient data beyond the location of the clinician and patient interac­tion includes transitions in care and patient engagement, existing workflows will change and new workflows will need to be devel­oped. This means new skills for existing workers and positions for new workers with the required skills.

Informatics and the Promoting Interoperability (PI) of Health IT

Promoting Interoperability initiatives strive to put each patient in the center of healthcare system by getting the “right information to the right place at the right time”

Health Information Exchanges (HIE) are used to exchange information between organizations as required by Meaningful Use.

Integrated Delivery Networks (IDNs) are becoming more common, and are allowing healthcare organizations to provide better care at a lower cost.

Learning Outcome 3.3 Summarize the informatics skills required to support Meaningful Use.

Teaching Notes

Promoting Interoperability is designed to put the patient at the center of the healthcare system and to ensure that all health information is available for exchange between all members of the care team as well as the patient. The objective is to get the “right information to the right place at the right time.” This will solve many of the prob­lems of paper records, will allow for better care, and should lower costs.

Health information exchanges (HIEs) are organi­zations that provide the infrastruc­ture and services allowing for the movement of health-related data between nonaffiliated stakehold­ers based on nationally estab­lished standards. HIEs will play a critical role in connecting all stakeholders.

Integrated delivery network (IDN) is a network of hospitals and physicians organized under a single parent company for the pur­pose of providing care across the full continuum of a patient popula­tion’s needs. In many ways, the goals of IDNs are designed to accomplish the standards of Promoting Interoperability, including the evolution to patient- centered care. The purpose of IDNs is to achieve better care and lower costs through productivity and efficiencies

Learning Outcome 3.4 Categorize the informatics skills supporting the continuum of care under accountable care and shared savings models.

Teaching Notes

The healthcare system in the United States is undergoing a massive restructuring, pri­marily through the Affordable Care Act (ACA). US healthcare has been based on a fee-for-service model, with care mostly given on an episodic basis (patients see doctors only when they are sick). The goal of the ACA and other policies is to move healthcare to a fee-for-value model. The hope is to reduce costs and have healthier patients through population health management, including wellness programs. ACOs are estab­lished in a partnership between providers and insurance companies.

The ACA called for the formation of accountable care organiza­tions (ACOs) using shared savings models that are supervised by CMS. The movement to ACOs and their focus on patient quality and out­come measurements parallel the PI initiative. The principal means of patient engagement are patient portals and Personal Health Records (PHRs).

mHealth is a Mobile-based or mobile-enhanced solutions that deliver healthcare. As mHealth evolves, mobile devices can capture patient data and automatically send it to PHRs and EHRs. The data will be moni­tored electronically, with alerts and notifications sent out as appro­priate.

CHALLENGE TO ETHICAL AND LEGAL SKILLS

/in /by

CHALLENGE TO ETHICAL AND LEGAL SKILLS

While in a clinical rotation in my junior year, I was assigned the dreaded Jack Camp (I still remember his name). He was a middle-aged single man receiving care for a compound fracture of his left lower extremity being treated with an external fixator. He had a bad case of diabetes, and an even worse sweet tooth. Before I even met him, the nurses on the floor were saying things like “good luck,” which made this junior nursing student extra paranoid (although I was grateful for the warning). The patient was known for voicing loud complaints about his room, the food, and the hospital routine. He also was using his call light very frequently. The nurses called him names and discussed their dislike of him in the nurses’ station, which was in the center of the unit.

ORDER A PLAGIARISM – FREE PAPER NOW

As the day progressed, I found out that all this patient wanted was some attention, because he was used to running things in his business. I actually found him entertaining. Thinking Outside the Box: CHALLENGE TO ETHICAL AND LEGAL SKILLS Possible Courses of Action Ignore the comments of the other nurses on the floor, hoping that no one else hears them. Report the nurses to my clinical instructor, possibly causing tension on the floor. Politely tell the nurses to keep it down and refrain from talking about the patient, risking my own comfort level; after all, I am only a visiting student—what do I know? Evaluating a Good Outcome: How Do I Define Success? Act as a patient advocate despite my limited power, which means correcting unethical behaviors as cordially as possible. Have the courage to go to the next level if the nurses’ behavior is not corrected. Inform the patient politely to modify his behavior. Personal Learning: Here’s to the Future! My response was to ignore the nurses’ comments and hope no one else heard them either. I was not courageous enough to be the patient advocate that we had been taught to be. I knew my response should have been to ask them to keep it down, which would allow them to maintain their personal opinions while at the same time keeping the comments from jeopardizing patient confidentiality. From this experience, I learned that you have to be a leader, speak up, and take the risk. Part of that means being able to go against the group, risking being ostracized. In doing so, others may follow your lead, but if they choose not to follow, at least you know you advocated for your patient. Since this experience, I have not been in a situation that has challenged my personal ethics, but I have the self-confidence to believe that I can be the leader that I spoke so passionately about. CHALLENGE TO ETHICAL AND LEGAL SKILLS

Then, answer the following questions:

1) How do you think you would respond in a similar situation? Why?

2) How do you think the nursing staff would have reacted had the nursing student approached them regarding their comments about Mr. Camp?

3) How could the nursing student initiate improved communication between Mr. Camp and the nurses working on his unit?

Question B

Nursing Advocacy in Action 

Patient Scenario Everybody loves Sarah. Mature for her 9 years, Sarah has advanced leukemia, and her only medical hope now is to transfer to a hospital 3,000 miles from home that has the bone marrow that she needs. There are, however, several problems. Sarah’s family is homeless and visits rarely. She makes excuses for them—saying how hard it is to be on the street and always trying to find shelter—but she couldn’t hide her disappointment when no one visited on Christmas and her birthday. You have met the parents and were struck by their immaturity. Sarah’s health care provider is working passionately to get Sarah to the transplant center; the latest hurdle is ensuring that they will accept her given the fact that the family has no insurance or finances. Many of Sarah’s professional caregivers aren’t sure that the bone marrow transplant is a good idea. It is doubtful the funds would be found to send any of her family with her, and the possibility exists that, if unsuccessful, she could die at the transplant center surrounded by strangers. You mention these concerns to Sarah’s doctor, who replies, “But this is her only hope for cure!” Implications for Nursing Advocacy How will you respond if you are Sarah’s nurse? Talk with your classmates and experienced nurses about the questions that follow. If you elect to advocate for Sarah, what practical steps can you take to ensure better health outcomes? What is it reasonable to expect of a student nurse, a graduate nurse, and an experienced nurse in this situation? What advocacy skills are needed to effectively respond to this challenge? CHALLENGE TO ETHICAL AND LEGAL SKILLS

BACKROUND: What do the H and the N stand for and what role do they play in influenza morbidity? What year did this virus cause worldwide morbidity and how many people died? “The first!” Suzy exclaimed. Dr. Winerman reserved four vaccines for his pediatric type 1 diabetic patients with the county health department. “Because of limited vaccine quantities, you’re entitled to priority immunization because you’re immune compromised,” explained Cory. “What do you mean, immune compromised? My pancreas may not be in great shape, but my immune system is just fine,” Suzy responded. “That’s not what medical studies report,” Dr. Winerman said, entering the room. “Let’s see how diabetes and immunology connect while I finish up your exam,” Dr. Winerman said. As Dr. Winerman examined Suzy, he asked lots of questions. “What do you know about the benefits of inflammation?” he queried. “I know the heat, redness, and swelling make me feel uncomfortable, but they indicate that neutrophils are phagocytizing invading microbes,” Suzy responded. “That’s right but not necessarily the case for diabetics. Hyperglycemia between 150 and 200 mg/dl impairs neutrophil chemotaxis, phagocytic activity, and intracellular killing. Have you been over 150 mg/dl this week?” Dr. The benefits of inflammation Winerman asked. Suzy nodded yes. 3. What are neutrophils and how do they act against pathogens? Based on the doctor’s statement, how are inflammatory responses affected in diabetics? BACKGROUND FOR Q 4: “This level of hyperglycemia also increases lymphocyte apoptosis, suppresses C3 activation, and reduces antibody production after pathogen exposure. What do you think, can diabetes have a negative impact on immune function?” he continued. “I had no idea that hyperglycemia could cause this much trouble with my immune system. What else should I know?” Suzy asked. “What are opportunistic pathogens?” “I know they are microorganisms that are not usually pathogenic. They only cause infections when the immune system isn’t functioning well … like while you’re weakened from fighting an earlier infection. I bet they are also more likely to cause an infection in a diabetic since our immune system can be impaired by hyperglycemia,” Suzy responded. “Absolutely,” Dr. Winerman said. “I want you vaccinated against the swine flu so you don’t get this infection. But, think about what might happen if you weren’t vaccinated and came down with the flu …” Suzy responded, “I would really be at risk of getting an opportunistic infection. My immune system would be doubly compromised from fighting the flu and being diabetic.” 4. Identify two opportunistic pathogens. What infections do they cause? 5. Identify two other immune compromised patient cohorts. 6. If you directed the county health department during an influenza outbreak, how you would prioritize immunization of the following personnel groups: geriatric patients, immune-compromised patients, health care providers, police/fire/emergency medical technicians, adults, and children?

Prevention of Disease Case Study Her mother is unaware of her surroundings and often calls out for her daughter Jackie when Jacqueline is in the room. Jacqueline reassures her mother that she is there to help, but to no avail. Jacqueline is unable to visit her children on holidays because she must attend to her mother’s daily needs. She is reluctant to visit friends or even go out to a movie because of her mother’s care needs or because she is too tired. Even though she has eliminated most leisure activities with Mark, Jacqueline goes to bed at night with many of her caregiving tasks unfinished. She tries to visit with her mother during the day, but her mother rejects any contact with her daughter. Planning for the upcoming holidays seems impossible to Mark, because of his wife’s inability to focus on anything except her mother’s care. Jacqueline has difficulty sleeping at night and is unable to discuss plans even a few days in advance. She is unable to visit friends and is reluctant to have friends visit because of the unpredictable behavior of her mother and her need to attend to the daily care. Reflective Questions 1. How do you think this situation reflects Jacqueline’s sense of role performance? 2. How do you think that Jacqueline may be contributing to her own health? Prevention of Disease Case Study
