Question: Imagine yourself in the role of the Director of HIM. You have been asked to downsize the following Health Information Departments: Scanning, documentation analysis, and coding. Explain how you would disseminate this information to your staff and how you would decide which staff to relocate to different areas of HIM and which staff to assign to telework from home. As you develop a strategy to downsize your department you realize that you have over a 100 thousand medical records that will need to be archived. Determine whether a record storage company would be the best option versus developing a project plan to scan the documents with remaining staff. As the director you will need to include information to support the option you determined was best for the organization. Include the criteria you used to arrive at your decision along with your recommendations for the option of choice.
