Information systems and knowledge systems can be used to collect and organize data. Informatics involves intentionally aggregating, analyzing, and applying that data to make decisions for care improvement.
What data systems could be implemented to improve care?
What functions could be automated to improve data collection?
What results would be expected if your suggestions were in place?

write feedback to the following post based on part 1
post 1
What data systems could be implemented to improve care?
What functions could be automated to improve data collection?
What results would be expected if your suggestions were in place?
To improve care, healthcare organizations can implement several data systems. One key system is Electronic Health Records (EHRs), which centralize patient data, making it accessible to providers for better decision-making. Additionally, Clinical Decision Support Systems (CDSS) can be integrated with EHRs to analyze patient data in real time and provide evidence-based recommendations. Patient Portals and Mobile Health Applications can also enhance care by empowering patients to check their health and share data with providers.
Automation can significantly enhance data collection by streamlining repetitive and manual tasks. For example, automated data entry from medical devices (e.g., vital signs monitors) can reduce errors and ensure real-time data availability. Natural language processing (NLP) can be used to extract structured data from provider notes, while automated appointment reminders and self-scheduling tools can improve operational efficiency and patient engagement.
If these suggestions are implemented, expected results include improved care coordination, reduced errors, and enhanced efficiency. Providers could make data-driven decisions more quickly, leading to better patient outcomes. Automation would also free up staff time, allowing more focus on patient care, improving both patient satisfaction and clinical outcomes.
post 2
The data systems that could be implemented to improve patient care would be Electronic Health Records, Predictive Analytics systems and Clinical Decision Support Systems. They are implemented to collect, organize data and enabling analyze inform received about the various patient care provided.
The functions that could be automated to improve data collection:-
Data cleaning and validation can be used to identify and correct errors which occur in the data entry and maintain accuracy with information received.
Rule- based data extraction is an automated system that can extract relevant information from clinical notes and other unstructured data.
The expected results in which is suggested would be:-
Reduced human error because of the present of automated data validation which helps to improve data quality.
Patient engagement is empowered because of the present of patient portal, this allows patients easy access to manage their health information and communicate with providers.
part 3
The organization of data into usable information within a health care setting is a core focus of health care information technology. Information, however, is not enough to make important decisions related to both operational and clinical activities. Knowledge and expertise allow you to interpret information into solid decisions. Systems used to collect knowledge and systems used to collect information can be dramatically different in terms of their structure and use.
Create a 12- to 14-slide presentation with detailed speaker notes or audio narration that discusses the differences between data used for information and data used for knowledge within a health care setting. In your presentation:
Define each system.
Compare information-based systems and knowledge-based systems. For example, consider how the systems collect and use different data.
Choose 3 examples of information-based systems. Explain how they affect patient care.
Choose 3 examples of knowledge-based systems. Explain how they affect patient care.
Explain how these 2 systems may integrate with each other to improve operational and clinical activities.
create an animated presentation of the power point
part 4
Taxonomies are simply a way to organize data, codes, identifiers, etc. They can be used across industries and play an important role in health care; every area of health care can have taxonomies.
research health care taxonomies and choose one to introduce Be able to share :
A definition and explanation of your chosen taxonomy
The usage and design (how it’s read) of your chosen taxonomy
