Describe three types of quality measures that should be used to effectively assess how effective reimbursements or payments are likely to be.

 Consider a scenario and apply economic health care concepts and principles to craft a presentation to inform decision makers regarding a proposed hospital expansion.
 
Imagine that senior executives of the hospital where you are employed are considering a significant expansion of its emergency care center that is smaller than other centers in the metro area. You have been tasked with communicating health care economic principles that must be considered as they explore and make decisions regarding the project.
There are a great many considerations when planning an expansion of this kind, such as building and finance costs, permitting, land acquisition, et cetera. Two critical considerations are the supply of emergency care services and the demand for health care workers. The executives are also interested in the revenue prospect. How will the patients pay? Who pays?
Your task is to create a PowerPoint presentation that summarizes a high-level economic analysis that informs the board’s decision-making by informing them about the supply and demand for emergency care services in the community, as well as quality measures. The information should inform the leadership’s decision to pursue the next steps in the expansion evaluation, which would involve a more detailed analysis of the factors that you outline. It should not be a full market analysis or evaluation of specific costs, but rather an introduction to the economic considerations.
Preparation

Choose a medium-size (one with multiple emergency care providers) metropolitan area and conduct research on:

Market structure of the emergency care services offered there.
The demand for labor and insurance.
The market supply for labor and insurance.

Consider the economic principles and tools that you will need to make your analysis and presentation. 

Instructions
Develop a PowerPoint Presentation with a minimum of 12 slides, including title and sources slides that address each of the areas below. Note that PowerPoint slides must include detailed speaker notes to expound upon complex concepts.
Part 1: Emergency Care Supply

Analyze the city’s emergency care services to provide an accurate high-level snapshot of the market structure in the emergency care space. You should confine your search to other hospitals or large clinics.
State and justify three primary questions that an economist should be asking regarding the supply of local emergency services that reveal important insights for the board. This should be approached from the health care provider’s perspective.
Provide a sound economic analysis using appropriate tools and principles that effectively answers one of these questions.

Part 2: Emergency Care Demand

Analyze the demand for local emergency care from a consumer perspective using appropriate economic principles and tools.
State and justify three primary questions that an economist should be asking regarding the market demand for labor and insurance of local emergency services that reveal important insights for the board.
Provide a sound economic analysis using appropriate tools and principles that answers one of these questions.

Part 3: Quality Measures

Describe three types of quality measures that should be used to effectively assess how effective reimbursements or payments are likely to be. For example, cost, efficiency, health outcome measures, and patient-reported outcome measures.

Use at least five sources to support your writing. Choose sources that are credible, relevant, and appropriate. Cite each source listed on your source page at least one time within your assignment. 
The presentation should follow these formatting requirements:

Include a cover slide containing the title of the assignment, the student’s name, the professor’s name, the course title, and the date. The cover slide is included in the required number of slides.
Sources slide(s) at the end of the presentation with five quality sources cited using the Strayer Writing Standards format.
Speaker notes should be detailed and submitted with slides.
Use clear bullet points with a summary when needed. Presentation slides should be clear and concise about health services strategic marketing using proper writing mechanics.
Use pictures, diagrams, and graphs where applicable to make your slides more appealing. Visit PexelsLinks to an external site. for free stock photos and videos you may use in your presentation.

 Describe how you would teach the hospital employees the rules and regulations regarding HIPAA.

A healthcare administrator needs to provide a safe and secure environment for all health information. No matter the healthcare setting, personal health information (PHI) is accessible to many individuals. You will be faced with situations as an administrator that will require a well-founded knowledge of how PHI is secured, how it is proactively monitored, and what immediate actions you need to take when faced with a potential breach. The purpose of this task is to assess your knowledge of the implications of maintaining the security and privacy of healthcare information. It will also help you understand the cultural issues of implementing change in a small healthcare setting.
SCENARIO
You are the healthcare administrator for a small critical access hospital (i.e., 25 beds or fewer). Your administration team includes the director of nursing, the chief medical officer, the director of support services, the director of pharmacy, and the health information management (HIM) director. You and your team have been tasked with investigating a recent data breach. As the data breach was investigated, several members of the staff have been identified as being directly involved in the breach. Several patients experiencing the compromise of their PHI have filed legal claims with the intent to sue. Your team is also accountable for implementing an electronic health record (EHR) system, which is a newly initiated technology in a culture that is resistant to change. The board of directors has requested that you have a plan addressing both of these issues ready to present in two weeks.

d.  Create a risk assessment plan to identify the potential for any future security breaches.
i.   Identify how often this assessment plan should be completed.
ii.  Identify who will complete this assessment plan.
B.  Determine the financial impact of a new EHR system by doing the following:
1.  Develop a risks versus benefits summary for the key stakeholders of the hospital to show why an EHR system should be invested in and implemented.
a.  Identify four key decision makers who give input and buy-in.
b.  Include two CMS requirements for the new system.
2.  List four new hardware components required for the new system.
a.  Identify the potential capital dollar investment for the new system.
b.  Discuss which of the three EHR systems—Cerner, Meditech, or Epic—would be the best system for your organization using information in the web links section below and the attached “Information on EHR Vendors.”
3.  Identify three components or applications that will need to be incorporated into the EHR system at your small critical access hospital.
a.  Discuss the key security and privacy components of the EHR system you selected in part B2b.
C.  Create an appropriate training plan for all clinical and non-clinical staff by doing the following:

d.  Develop a training plan for 75 physicians (40 are active medical staff, 35 see patients on a consult or specialist basis).
i.   Design a schedule, using the attached “Proposed Physician Schedule,” that allows all physicians to learn the new program while also providing adequate coverage for patient care on a 24-hour basis.
3.  Describe a train-the-trainer program you could implement to ensure ongoing support and training of new employees.
4.  Describe a transition plan for employees transitioning from the old EHR system to the new EHR system.
a.  Describe how you will measure whether employees have demonstrated competency with the new system.
b.  Identify the most appropriate time of day and day of the week to initiate the transition.
i.   Identify three leaders who should be on-site for the transition period.
