EMR systemsThe discussion assignment provides a forum for discussing relevant topics for

text readings and also use outside sources. As in all assignments, cite your sources in your
work and provide references for the citations in APA format.Start reviewing and responding
to the postings of your classmates as early in the week as possible. Respond to at least two
of your classmates. Participate in the discussion by asking a question, providing a statement
of clarification, providing a point of view with a rationale, challenging an aspect of the
discussion, or indicating a relationship between two or more lines of reasoning in the
discussion. Complete your participation for this assignment by Wednesday, June 7,
2017.Privacy vs. Quality of HealthcareThe goal of protecting patient information privacy
often conflicts with the goal of providing the improved healthcare that EMRs can .
Provisions in HIPAA provide some confidentiality protection, but not enough. Potential for a
major privacy breach lies in the system of primary or secondary users.What privacy and
security issues are hindering the adoption of EMR systems? In your opinion, which of these
issues is the most important to address first? Drawing on course readings or outside
scholarly sources, your answer with examples and clear rationales.ORDER NOW FOR
CUSTOMIZED, PLAGIARISM-FREE PAPERSYou must proofread your paper. But do not
strictly rely on your computer’s spell-checker and grammar-checker; failure to do so
indicates a lack of effort on your part and you can expect your grade to suffer accordingly.
Papers with numerous misspelled words and grammatical mistakes will be penalized. Read
over your paper – in silence and then aloud – before handing it in and make corrections as
necessary. Often it is advantageous to have a friend proofread your paper for obvious
errors. Handwritten corrections are preferable to uncorrected mistakes.Use a standard 10
to 12 point (10 to 12 characters per inch) typeface. Smaller or compressed type and papers
with small margins or single-spacing are hard to read. It is better to let your essay run over
the recommended number of pages than to try to compress it into fewer pages.Likewise,
large type, large margins, large indentations, triple-spacing, increased leading (space
between lines), increased kerning (space between letters), and any other such attempts at
“padding” to increase the length of a paper are unacceptable, wasteful of trees, and will not
fool your professor.The paper must be neatly formatted, double-spaced with a one-inch
margin on the top, bottom, and sides of each page. When submitting hard copy, be sure to

2. use white paper and print out using dark ink. If it is hard to read your essay, it will also be
hard to follow your argument.
