Homework 10

Homework 10

The mission of my project is to improve the quality, safety and efficiency of health care for all. In the future there will be a program of health research that will promote the improvements in the clinical health system. The future health I.T. will broadly define the use of information and communication technology in health care to support the delivery of patient or population care. For example the future technology will include applications such as telemedicine, clinical alerts, and reminders, computerized clinical decision support system, consumer health information applications, and electronic exchange of health information. I feel the implementation of this futuristic health I.T. will be beneficial in these settings. Patients at home or various types of communities that are underdeveloped will have access to this new health technology. The successful health I.T in these settings may provide much needed tools to improve health care for various vulnerable populations including elderly patients.
Pertaining to scientific proof some believe there is no such thing. In science there is no proof because there are a lot of things which has a degree of uncertainty. In strictest sense one never arrives at a “proof”. There is a very high degree of probability however. In my program there will not be a 100 percent success rate. However there will be a high degree of certainty that the Health I.T. program will help the majority of the population. And eventually make the world a healthier place because of the easy access to information pertaining to your health.
