Case Study

Our case study (Planning for COVID-19 in a rural acute care hospital) is the foundation of each
Assignment.
Target:
Analyze how ARRA and the HITECH Act promote and regulate the use of HIT
Assess the benefits that widespread HIT may bring to the health care system
Evaluate legal and ethical issues associated with the planning
and delivery of health care services
All assignments must target the content application while using two variables: the job choice and the case
assigned by the faulty
Develop stakeholders’ (the ones you identified in assignment 4) communication plan outline (no more than
500 words) in the form of a Memo.
-Propose the main and alternative communication channels; Be specific and practical.
-List minimum one policy (list the full name) besides HIPAA that might set restrictions or specific
requirements for the communication channels chosen and engagement with the stakeholders; make sure
to remember the policies affecting digital and nondigital technological channels.
-Propose subordination communication points for at least one linked or affiliated stakeholder(for example,
the Administrative officer to the Attorney General and vice versa or the Communication Coordinator to the
news program and news program director);
-List two ethical considerations influencing the communication with this stakeholder. Be specific and
applicable to this health care delivery managerial issues. Privacy is not a good choice as it is mandated
and regulated.

grammar rules.
TIPS:
The communication plan is for you and your stakeholders. Make sure to pick the appropriate channels.
Review and understand what the policies/acts/regulations you use are talking about. Do not rely on
superficial or common sense knowledge. Seek primary sources.
Make sure to remember that privacy and security are regulated in health information case. Do not use them
in the ethical issue discussion.
