patient’s comments.
o Patient Scenario:
A 57-year-old man presented with crusted lesions on his thorax that had developed over a period of 2 months. He had occasional bloody discharge,

without pain, and did not have constitutional or other systemic symptoms. Multiple skin biopsies eventually confirmed the diagnosis of cutaneous

T-cell lymphoma. Computed tomography revealed no lymphadenopathy or metastases. No evidence of bone marrow involvement was found. The patient

received a course of photopheresis, with a good response. Three months later, he presented with ataxia. Imaging revealed infiltration involving

the pons and cerebellum, with new pleuropulmonary nodules. Lung-biopsy findings were consistent with recurrent low-grade T-cell lymphoma. The

patient received photopheresis therapy and then underwent autologous stem-cell transplantation. During his today’s visit, 10 months after

transplantation, he continued to have remission but continues to receive photopheresis treatment.

Researching Solutions

Researching Solutions– Instructions
Overview:
Create a 5-page request for proposal (RFP) for the hospital, health care clinic, or other health care facility you selected in Assessment 1.
• Competency: Manage how information is utilized within a health care setting.
o Analyze information technology needs of a health care setting.
Competency: Integrate information management within the health care organization.
o Evaluate policies and human resource guidelines of a health care setting.
Competency: Analyze common technological solutions in health care information management.
o Evaluate HIPAA.
o Evaluate electronic health records in a health care setting.
o Evaluate quality improvement initiatives in a health care setting.
o Analyze how information technology and administration work collaboratively in a health care setting.

Context:
Information management can only be successful if integrated appropriately within the functions of the health care setting. Often, one

information technology solution is not enough to manage all aspects. In this case, various systems need to be integrated to work collaboratively

together, while remaining effective within their primary function.
In addition to looking at how information systems begin to fall in line with administrative and strategic decisions in health care settings, you

should consider how computer technology assists in the clinical component of the health care setting. One major focus now is how computer

technology is used in surgery. How might technology impact surgical planning and initiatives?
