In the event that those supplies were not able to be delivered on time, the possibility of not being able to provide properly for our patients would be immense. And with the company receiving certain supplies from all over the world, it is very possible that due to measures beyond the hospital corporations control or the supplying company that delivery of supplies could be delayed due to inclement weather, natural or manmade disasters. This in turn could have a substantial impact to the quality of care provided and received. In addition, the hospital corporation is also a key component to several ongoing research projects for treatment, cures and vaccinations for various diseases and infections, all of which rely on the supplies provided by other research facilities or specialty supplies provided by specific supply companies who could be impacted by these potential disasters, which would debilitate and prolong the success of the research projects effected.

For the task of creating a Business Continuity Plan (BCP), I will follow a logical and systematic formula for implementation, monitoring and reviewing the plan for United Health Group. The goal is to minimize the impact of any disruption by containing it within a predictable and predetermined period of time. To do this, I recommend that this plan be developed and implemented with as many preventative controls, contingency resources, and procedures designed to allow the organization to quicky bounce back from any long-term business interruption. With this document I’ll present a workable DR plan that focuses not only on safeguarding critical data but also on the restoration of all normal business functions.
