...Definition of Terms Jentry Pippin HCS/533 May 22, 2013 Aimee Kirkendol Definition of Terms People working with health information technology (HIT) systems must familiarize themselves with key terms to help them perform their assigned work tasks. The terms below help health care organizations to operate more accurately and efficiently. By applying these tools and resources, health care organizations and professionals provide better services and a continuum of care to their patients. Key terms include acronyms, such as AMR, CMR, CMS, CMS-1500, CPT, DRG, EPR, HL7, ICD-9, and UB-92. The following excerpt will translate and define these acronyms and describe the most important aspect of these key terms. Translation and Definition of Key Health Information Technology Terms SearchHealthIT (2011) describes an ambulatory medical record (AMR) as “an electronically stored file of a patient’s outpatient medical records, which includes all surgeries and care that do not involve being admitted to a hospital” (para. 1). Physicians and other medical professionals have access to a patient’s complete medical history. The article states the most important aspect of an AMR lies in the fact they only apply to medical procedures, which require an overnight or longer stay in the hospital. Ambulatory medical records only exist in non-hospital environments, such as physicians’ offices, urgent care clinics, and at-home medical care settings. A computerized medical...

...Definitions of Terms HCS/533 January 14, 2013 Sheryl-Anne Murray * AMR- Ambulatory Medical Records are medical records in which physicians use. If the physician is using the same information system as the hospital, they can be linked together to show visits in the ambulatory setting. The medical records are kept at the office that provides the care (Wager, Lee, & Glaser, 2009). The AMR system includes billing, coding, and the transcription of doctor’s notes. AMR’s are important because they can ensure compliance, increase the time which doctor’s spend with their patients, and reduce the space in the offices for paper charts. * CMR- Computerized Medical Records are health information about patients stored within the system. Recently, the use of computerized medical records has become a requirement for the government and CMS in order to obtain reimbursements for services rendered (Wager, Lee, & Glaser, 2009). CMR’s are important and increases reimbursement time processes, increases retrieval times of patient records, makes physician handwriting more legible, and assists with organization of patient information. The CMR includes information that was previously obtained by scanning the patient chart into the computer system. * CMS- Centers for Medicare and Medicaid focuses on physicians, nursing homes, long-term care, home care and hospitals. They ensure compliance of government policies and procedures of these facilities. CMS aggregates data from CMS1500...

Definition of terms This presentation will translate and define the following abbreviations: AMR, CMR, CMS, CMS-1500, CPT, DRG, EPR, HL7, ICD-9, and UB-92. Technology today has revolutionized the health care system, as technology evolves, so does the environment promoting quality care for those in need of it. AMR- An ambulatory medical record (AMR) is an electronically stored file of a patient’s outpatient medical records, which includes all surgeries and care that do not involve being admitted to a hospital. An AMR is similar to an electronic medical record (EMR), but while EMR’s keep track of inpatient care (surgeries and care that require spending overnight or longer in a hospital), AMRs only apply to medical procedures and cares that do not result in an overnight stay in a hospital or that are given in non-hospital settings such as urgent care clinics, physicians’ offices and at home medical care. AMRs are stored in electronic databases called ambulatory medical record systems that are accessible by doctors and other medical professionals. CMR- Computerized medical record is an electronic information system and keeps records of each individual patient’s health. Computerized medical records (CMR) provide a viable mechanism for implementing clinical governance.

In order to master the study of Information System in Health care, a thorough under-standing of the following terms are very important. AMR. The Automated Medical Record. The Automated Medical Record is a clinical information system with powerful facilities for querying and decision support. Automated Medical Record is the beginning of using electronic medium for the purpose of communication between health care providers, and between patients and health care providers and vice versa. Automation of medical record was originally intended to promote timely billing and securing prompt payments, but it came to stay as the most beneficial development for the patient in the scheme of delivery of care. Lack of proper and complete medical record may be the most important reason for the medical error in the treatment process. CMR. Computerized Medical Records. Computerized Medical Records are the digital counterparts to patient medical records kept in paper files and folders in health care offices. They are, in essence, an electronic version of the same medical records...

Stone HCS/ 533 Health Information Systems May 30, 2011 Professor Linda Mesko The health industry has been under major construction in its efforts to catch up in this age of technology. These efforts are referred to as Health information technology (HIT). HIT imparts the architecture to explain the complete management of health information throughout the various computerized systems. It safeguards the exchange between government, quality entities, customers, suppliers and insurers. Health Information Technology is now viewed as a very promising agent for enhancing healthcare quality, protection and a well-organized and resourceful healthcare delivery system. This assignment has ten terms that fall under the scope of HIT and Health Information Systems (HIS) that are interconnected. Each term will be defined and a concise statement of importance will be explained. AMR • AMR (Automated Medical Records) is a term used at the early stage of electronic medical documentation. It was information retained on a customary personal computer and did not comply with legal ramifications for electronic medical records. Therefore a paper file was maintained. The computer information is used as a working file, and then pages are printed and filed in the chart (Fishman, 2005). • Important aspect of AMR is the aid of premature discovery of conditions of public health issues.

...Appliquees Doctorate of Business Administration Human Capital Management Paper on Dynamic Capabilities of Firms Presented to: Dr. Sherif Delawar By Mohamed Antably March 2012 Cairo, Egypt. Abstract: From one hand the dynamic capabilities of firms are the sources and methods of wealth creation and capture by private enterprise firms operating in environments of rapid technological change. Other hand, Human capital ultimate objectives are linking HR practices and knowledge with goals of the firm to achieve and develop Competitive advantages. Accordingly, linking both statements would generate that HC is not only working to achieve the organizations objectives and but also to formalize, maintain and develop the firm dynamic capabilities. HC should also work on sharing and collecting success stories, lessons learnt and implicit individuals' knowledge into institutional explicit knowledge. The competitive advantage of firms is seen as resting on distinctive processes (ways of coordinating and combining which is more difficult among horizontal levels but easy in the vertical levels applying the chain of command), shaped by the firm's asset positions (such as the firm's portfolio of difficult-to-trade knowledge assets and complementary assets), and the evolution path(s) it has adopted or inherited. The importance of path dependencies is ampled where conditions of increasing returns exist. Whether and how...

While enhancing thermal characteristics, the solid–liquid mixtures present an unavoidable disadvantage in terms of pumping cost for economic operation of thermal-fluid systems. In addition, there is a lack of agreement between experimental data provided in the literature. The present work found that there would be no comprehensible design strategy in developing nanofluids. In this work, the Axiomatic Design (AD) theory is applied to systemize the design of nanofluids in order to bring its practical use forward. According to the Independence Axiom of the AD theory, the excessive couplings between the functional requirements and the parameters of a nanofluid system prevent from meeting the functional goals of the entire system. At a parametric level, the design of a nanofluid system is...

There have been several models developed for this purpose. The main objectives of these models are to organize the knowledge activities to increase competitive advantage and turn the market share into a continuous and permanent superiority through utilizing the intellectual capital of the enterprise for better products and services. When existing models are carefully analyzed, it can be clearly seen that every model addresses different aspects of KM. While some of these models have been intensifying on the use of technology and production of knowledge, the others rather focus on the utilization of knowledge itself. Although these models point out the importance of managerial participation, they are mainly designed to be facilitated at operational levels. It is now obviously seen that there is a need for a new model that will deal with KM at strategic, tactic, and operational levels in an integrated manner. In this...

...Analyst information intermediation – private and public information –and the central role of knowledge and social forces in economic processes in the ‘market for information’. John Holland, University of Glasgow, Jo Danbolt, University of Edinburgh, Lei Chen, University of Keele. John Holland, University of Glasgow, The Adam Smith Business School, University of Glasgow, Main Building, Glasgow, G12 8QQ, Scotland Abstract: This paper develops a model of the information intermediation role of analysts in the ‘market for information’ (MFI). It illustrates how the same type of ‘soft’ intangibles information changes as it progresses through analyst information intermediation processes. The latter concern: company disclosure; analyst acquisition and analysis of company information; analyst reporting processes; and market impacts. The common information concerns ‘soft’ or qualitative information about the company intellectual capital (IC) or intangibles in the company business model. Banks and bank analysts are used as examples. Knowledge, social and economic factors in the wider ‘market for information’ (MFI) are shown to be major influences on ‘soft information’ and how it changes in analyst information intermediation processes. Negative knowledge and social factors play a role in weakening and eventually destabilising economic processes in analyst and the MFI. They were important factors in creating knowledge and information problems in analysts and the MFI, both ongoing...
