1.0 ABSTRACT
George Hopesman-Wubarte Hospital (GHW) has been a nationally recognized leader in the healthcare industry for several years. However, in order to remain the innovative leader of its kind, the Greinly and Associates Consulting Group (GACG) has been asked to give some recommendations on how Information Technology can bring some improvements. The results of a conducted study of the patient information and medical records system indicted that a biometric known as Electronic Health Records (EHR) would drastically improve the timeliness and security of this process.
A complete comprehensive study of the current antiquated system has been done. This study has allowed for the recommendations of how to implement the business and technical changes of the old system into the new EHR system to be brought forth.
A theoretical analysis, backed by the research of previous and current projects with great similarities indicates that the implementation of the EHR system will drastically improve the hospital’s overall process of patient care. The end results being that there will be more satisfied and more loyal patients.
