presentation between 7 and 12 minutes in length. The presentation should include a PowerPoint and oral presentation of the slides. There is no slide number
requirement. Answer all questions thoroughly with the allotted time. PowerPoint allows you to record directly to each slide. Be sure to include a title slide,
objective slide, content slides, reference slide in APA format. Use the appropriate APA style in-text citations and references for all resources utilized to
answer the questions. Include at least three (3) scholarly sources using APA citations to support your claims. This assignment uses a rubric for scoring.
Please review it as part of your assignment preparation and again prior to submission to ensure you have addressed its criteria at the highest level. Use a
recording platform of your choice and either upload as an mp4 or share the link directly to the video in the dropbox.
Discuss your topic and its relationship to your current (or future) practice. Discuss why the topic is important in healthcare informatics.
What research have you have found on the topic? Describe how each scholarly article relates to the topic and your current (or future) practice. Describe what
conclusions you have drawn based on your research of the topic.
What ethical or legal issues does this topic present?
Create a plan for implementing a change (or justify the need for no change). Who needs to be involved? What training programs are needed? Is there a need
for on-going training? Discuss how you would evaluate the success of the change (or the continued success of what you are currently doing). What is the
cost to implement or maintain this change? Who will be financially responsible? How feasible is this change?
Finally, identify how changes in public policy and technological advances in the future could impact this topic. What would those changes mean to the
healthcare industry?
