...Ryan Senior Vice President, Business Operations McGraw-Hill Construction Background McGraw-Hill Construction—which includes Dodge Reports, Sweet’s and other web information services and publications—is the leader in providing information, intelligence, tools and resources to the $4.6 trillion construction industry. It’s constantly looking for ways to improve its operations to connect its customers to projects, products and people. A few years ago, the company’s MHC Dodge division decided to streamline the way it added new content to its vast digital database of architectural plans, specifications and other information related to active construction projects. The valuable database is subscriber based and contains more than 65,000 projects that are updated daily. At the time, the organization relied on five geographically dispersed in-house imaging facilities to convert hard-copy construction documents into digital form. The internal imaging process was not optimized, however, because it required scanning each document twice—once to produce microfilm and once for the digital image file. The operation also was time-consuming, because the hard copy originals had to be returned to the people who provided them. That required meticulous tracking. To sharpen its focus on its core competency— providing the best source of up-to-date construction information to subscribers—the company decided to outsource its imaging operations. The company was looking for...

...“In-Depth Mobile Radiology” - A Marketing Plan Background IN-DEPTH MOBILE RADIOLOGY is a new medical staffing and mobile diagnostic company that caters to medical facilities that are in need of our services. Our company provides a couple of types of service who are in need of diagnostic machines or technologists. The first type of service is acquiring trailer truck based mobile MRI or CT scanner machines or providing ultrasound and mobile x-ray machines. The market is open for medical facilities, nursing homes or rehabilitation centers that do not have their own diagnostic equipment and instead of purchasing their own machine that cost so much our company can offer our services to bring our mobile machines into their facilities parked outside gets all their procedures done for the cheapest price possible. The second type of service is staffing for surgical centers or medical facilities providing technologists that would operate the advanced fluoroscopic x-rays, CT scans, MRI, ultrasound, bone density and other medical diagnostic equipment that needs a certification to operate.

A concise definition of this word would be “Living and working together for the common good,” but our definition is broader: “All people, regardless of race, religion or culture, harmoniously living and working together into the future.” Unfortunately, the presence of imbalances in our world in such areas as trade, income levels and the environment hinders the achievement of kyosei.

..."EMR as HUB” What an exciting time to become part of the health care industry! Medical research makes new discoveries to improve the quality of patient care and save lives on a daily basis. Health care reform is gaining momentum, revolutionizing the industry and requiring many administrative changes, such as the creation of the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA). Rules and standards evolved from this act provide a way to ensure your protected health information remains confidential. In this digital age, it is particularly relevant. The digital evolution impacts many areas. Digital TVs, computers, smart phones and iPods have totally changed the way we do business and enjoy entertainment. In the medical industry, the digital evolution provided advanced imaging technology, and a variety of other significant improvements for treating patients. On the administrative side, the development of practice management programs and electronic health records streamline office workflow and helps provide patients a more efficient and cost effective experience.

...require less skilled training as compared to licensed nurses. The second option for phase I is based on loan. It consists of a six month repay loan period with the total interest payout of $56,589 and $21,297 interest saved. The monthly payment period is over in twelve months with no prepayment limitation that is an excellent deal.. I chose option one loan plan because it has no prepayment limitation. Taking the first loan will help the hospital close the loan within three months, as compared to the second loan option which could take six months to prepay. Phase II: I chose to take the refurbished loan for the high-Speed CT scanner. Choosing refurbished machines will be a good option and will save the hospital almost 50 percent of the cost price as compared to a new one. With the X-ray option, I had a difficult time making the right decision. However, after searching and reading Gilbert Sanchez’s comments, the Chief Executive Officer, I realized that it might be best to go with Capital Lease. With Capital Lease, the center will get the ownership of the machine after the payment is up. Moreover, after the payment ends the center...

...Facility Planning Part 2 Pamela Jackson HCS/446 September 28, 2015 Rachel Rivera Facility Planning – Part II Facility planning for a health care organization or outpatient clinic takes on its own unique regulatory requirements. Regulatory requirements are requirements that have been mandated by various federal, states, and local municipalities regarding the operation and safety of business operations as well as services provided. They are the legal fence between education and catastrophe.”The basic regulatory frameworks and acts that govern the present business operations include Sarbanes Oxley Act ([SOX], 2002), Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (1999), and Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act ([HIPAA], 1996).” (Ezinearticles.com 2012) The main purpose of these regulatory requirements and tools is to ensure that society as a whole reap the benefits through accountability, integrity and confidentiality. The impact on regulatory requirements is based on how they are implemented. Regulatory Requirements Effect on the Design and Equipment Many times when planning a facility for use in an outpatient clinic it is important to research the regulatory requirements for equipment utilized in the care of patients and how it will impact the over all care, safety and wellness of the organization.

...flock to digital cameras, and cell phone manufacturers beganto offer camera phones. As if all that were n¶t enough, Fuji was slowly but surely exposing the cracks in Kodak¶s marketing strategy. This was especially true of the move toward one-hour photo processing. In early 2003, the company began a major reevaluation of corporate strategy. In the years following, Kodak reduced its dependence on traditional photography. The new direction for the company would focus on non-photographic markets, digital markets (such as inkjet printers and high-end digital printing), and medical imaging. The company would no longer invest in traditional consumer film, which, along with photography, accounted for 70 percent of Kodak¶s revenue and all its profits. By 2004, the company had been significantly restructured in a manner reflective of the new strategic directions. By 2006, it appeared that the new strategic plan was not working, as evidenced by heavy losses and a declining stock price. Discussion Questions 1. How are the market structure and demand, the nature of the buying unit, and the typesof decisions and decision processes in the proposed commercial and health care markets as compared with Kodak¶s traditional consumer market? In the traditional consumer film market,Kodak had to have its film everywhere. Although it could deal with large chains like Walgreen or Wal-Mart, it had to have its film available...

The hospital was acquired by the University of Miami in 2008; since then, it has become the center of healthcare excellence in South Florida. As any new business, the organization is constantly searching for opportunities to improve its physical infrastructure and financial status. In this paper we will analyze the external and internal environmental factors that directly or indirectly affect the overall operations of the hospital. We will also describe its competitive position as well as the hospital’s organizational structure. External Factors UMH mission is to provide healthcare services to the community it serves, as well as to being a point of interest for international patients.

These external factors are divided in three major categories: remote, industrial, and international. Remote. These factors are independent from the institution’s operating situations...
