1. What is the systems-development life cycle? Why is it important to the selection of an information system?
2. The SDLC (system development life cycle) involves several phases.The implementation phase can be the most challenging and it is the phase that is at most risk of failure. Why is the implementation phase at such risk for failure?
3. Third is the Implementation Phase; in this phase, the system is installed and evaluated in the organization's operational environment."
What are some common challenges that occur during the "go-live" or implementation stages of an information technology project? Other than staff training, how can these challenges be minimized?
4. The SDLC also needs to be in alignment with the strategy of an organization. However, creating a cost-efficient information technology system that is in alignment with strategic goals of the organization can be a major challenge. Which department in a health care organization is frequently in charge of planning the development of an information technology system? What is their primary role?
5. Determining the scope of an information technology project can be overwhelming. What is a good first step in identifying the scope of an IT project?
6. What is an electronic medical record (EMR)? Describe how an EMR system can advance the strategies of a health care provider organization
7. Imagine you have been selected to consult for a prestigious health care organization. Your ultimate goal is to develop a proposal to present to the board of the organization. At their last meeting, the board asked you to prepare a proposal on how the organization might adopt a technology trend to improve the quality of the health care delivered to organization members.
Research various types, uses, and effects of technology across the health care industry.
Write a 350-700 word summary describing various types and uses of technology across the health care industry and their impact. Also, identify the technology trend you will recommend for the health care organization.
