This week's COs pertain to quality, process improvement, accreditation, and regulations. Let's have some fun researching!

There are three parts to this discussion question that must be answered in your initial post: First, conduct an Internet search to find out how a "real world" healthcare organization addresses accreditation, clinical quality and process improvement utilizing data posted on their website, outcomes measurements ors, benchmarking, patient safety information, and so forthetc. on their website.

You can check one of the hospitals in your local area, or state or go to one of the renowned organizations such as The Mayo Clinic, The Cleveland Clinic, or Johns Hopkins Hospital, and so forth.

Second, go to the Joint Commission's website and research that same hospital for their Quality Check and certifications for specific diseases and staffing. Any specific data and/or statistics used? and Oryx components.

Present an overview of your findings. Finally, present an overview of the organization, your findings from each of the sites, and your professional assessment of what you discovered.

Specifically, how might you, as the HIM Director of that organization, utilize this information?discuss, specifically, how you would utilize this information in the HIM department to support accreditation and quality of care.
