Assignment 2: Impact of RHIOs

RHIOs are comprised of multiple stakeholders. They play a vital role in health information exchange (HIE) in a community. Effective HIE directly impacts implementation of public health standards and efficacy of health programs in a region.

Review the following US government Web sites:

• Health Information Management Systems (HIMSS). (2009). Overview of health information exchange. Retrieved from http://www.himss.org/files/HIMSSorg/content/files/RHIO/RHIO_HIE_GeneralPresentation.pdf
• HealthIT.GOV. (n.d.). NwHIN history & background. Retrieved from http://www.healthit.gov/policy-researchers-implementers/nwhin-history-background

Then, perform the following tasks:

Task 1: Find and state definitions for the following terms:

• Electronic Health Records (EHR)
• Interoperability of health information systems
• Data standards in healthcare
• Health information exchange (HIE)
• Regional Health Information Organization (RHIO)
• National Health Information Network (NHIN)

Task 2: Using the Argosy University online library resources, do the following:

• Examine at least two scholarly references on RHIOs.
• Cite at least one example of how an RHIO improved the standard of healthcare.

Task 3: Analyze how the development of RHIOs will improve the standard of healthcare in the United States. Support your answer with scholarly references.

• Incorporate the definitions for the terms listed in task 1.
• Propose 3–5 data fields, mandatory or variable, that should be included in an HIE database.

Write a 2–3-page paper in Word format. Apply APA standards to citation of sources. Use the following file naming convention: LastnameFirstInitial_M2_A2.doc. For example, if your name is John Smith, your document will be named SmithJ_M2_A2.doc.
