Description
The purpose of this assignment is to demonstrate your understanding of the responsibility of a health care organization in establishing a risk management program that addresses liability and malpractice.
Assume your organization will begin offering synchronous telemedicine services and you have been asked to present information about incorporating an enterprise risk management program that mitigates risks and provides strategies for operational (credentialing, standard of care, and documentation) clinical/patient safety, financial, and legal/regulatory (HIPAA, HITECH, CMS), state-specific regulations, and technology.
Write a 750-1,000-word report to the administrative team that:
Describes how the risk management program will address areas of concern over operational, clinical/patient safety, financial, legal/regulatory, and state-specific regulations, as well as technology.
Explains the risk for potential liability and malpractice upon the provider or organization if policies and procedures do not address identified risk concerns.
In addition to your textbook, you are required to support your analysis with at least three credible health-related resources.
Prepare this assignment according to the guidelines found in the APA Style Guide, located in the Student Success Center.
