Utilizing the appropriate sources, list 2-3 challenges related to the adoption of new technology (for example, adoption of EMRs or EHRs or PHRs, telemedicine or any other healthcare technology). Refer to the Notes section and read the additional notes. Then, discuss methods that may be used in managing change in clinical settings (for example, how does the adoption of EHRs affect the clinicians at various levels and how can administration effectively manage change). How would you as an administrator use quantitative and qualitative data so that it can influence a decision making process? It is crucial that you do your research and find scholarly articles that support your opinions and arguments/claims. Providing examples is always a plus. Make sure your paper is no less than two pages in length, double spaced, 12 font, Times New Roman or Ariel………………….. Notes Section: Change management is necessary when an organization is shifting its current position or direction to a more desirable one. This process will allow organizations to more effectively reach their goals. Effective change management is characterized by measurable objectives, clear communication, appropriate planning and time allotments, employee buy-in, and continuous monitoring and tweaking.
The decision making process can be very complicated especially when multiple stakeholders are involved. Decision making is the mental process of determining a plan of action between alternatives that will lead to a final choice. Most decisions are made unconsciously. However, logical decision making requires evidence to base a decision on.
It helps to use tools such as listing pros and cons, economic analyses or decision making software to collect evidence and evaluate alternative decisions. Once alternatives have been identified simply listing the pros and cons of each alternative can allow a decision maker to easily compare them and make an informed decision. Taking this one step further, economic analysis such as cost-benefit analysis requires that the expected costs and anticipated benefits of each alternative be evaluated. Using this analysis, decision makers are presented with an expected return on investment for each alternative and can justify their decision by typically selecting the alternative with the greatest benefit and lowest costs.
