Health_Care_Information_Systems_2e_Ch14 (2).pdf

Resource: Ch. 14 of Health Care Information
Systems

Consider the following scenario:

·During
the fourth week of your internship, the CIO e-mails you several examples of
other IT project implementations. Later that day, she says to you, “Review the
examples I sent you about the implementation process. I attached a list of
questions for you to answer about how the implementation process works and why
IT projects sometimes fail. I’m most interested in your analysis of how
organizations such as ours can minimize the occurrences and effects of IT
failures.”

Read the University of Phoenix Material: Case
Study—Memorial Health System CPOE Implementation.

Write at least a 700-word paper in which you
answer the following questions:

·What
is the typical IT implementation process? What are the roles and
responsibilities involved in system implementation? 

·How
did the process described in the case study fail to include the fundamental
activities identified in Ch. 7 of Health Care Information
Systems?

·Ch.
14 of Health Care Information Systemsdescribes the causes of project
failure. What are at least five indicators of project failure that manifest
themselves in the case study?

·For each indicator
you described what might you have done differently to eliminate or minimize its
effect?

In addition to the above, to earn the maximum points,
be sure to:

·Include a title
page and reference pageconsistent with APA
guidelines.

·Include an introduction
paragraph that provides sufficient background and previews what the
paper will cover.

·Include a conclusion
paragraph that summarizes major points of your paper. 

·Use paragraph headings to make it
easier for the reader to locate the required content requested by the
CIO.

·Keep in mind that you are an intern asked to
create an analysis of how to minimize failures for a CIO. 

·Cite your sources (reference only credible
sources); DO NOT PLAGIARIZE.

Format your paper consistent with
APA guidelines.
