Abstract
For this assignment we are to write an informational proposal assessing the development of an integrated health care system affects the installation of computer networks. The items addressed in my proposal include: What key considerations are involved in setting up a computer network for an integrated health care system? How do integrated systems affect the installation of networks? What are the benefits of networking within an integrated system? What are the challenges of networking within an integrated system? …show more content…
They are using integrated system of care which connects patients, clinicians, payers, and support organizations in order for all stakeholders to be able to exchange information more effectively. An integrated system has to provide the unique needs of healthcare in interoperability, security, availability, productivity and must be flexible as well.
There are a number of business challenges in healthcare such as service quality, safety, rising costs, a severe shortage of skilled staff in order to meet the needs of patients with a complex burden of illness. To meet the challenges in front of us, will require a shift from acute care to more preventive and long-term chronic care management. This new care model must be supported by interoperable health information technology and a more patient-centric care system. www.cisco.com/web/strategy/docs/healthcare/07CS1034_HC_Whitepaper_r5.pdf
