Benchmark Homework: Risk Management Program Analysis
The purpose of this homework is to analyze how an organization's quality and improvement processes contribute to its risk management program.
This homework builds on the Risk Management Program Analysis - Part One homework you completed in Topic 1 of this course (falls in the hospital).
Assume that the sample risk management program you analyzed in Topic 1(falls in the hospital) was implemented and is now currently in use by your health care employer/organization. Further assume that your supervisor has asked you to create a high-level summary brief of this new risk management program to share with a group of administrative personnel from a newly created community health organization in your state who has enlisted your organization's assistance in developing their own risk management policies and procedures.
Compose a 1,250 to 1,500 words summary brief that expands upon the elements you first addressed in the Topic 1 homework. In this summary brief, address the following points regarding your health care organization and its risk management program:
1. Explain the role of your organization's MIPPA-approved accreditation body (e.g., JC, ACR, IAC) in the evaluation of your institution's quality improvement and risk management processes.
2. Describe the roles that different levels of administrative personnel play in healthcare ethics and establishing or sustaining employer/employee-focused organizational risk management strategies and operational policies.
3. Illustrate how your organization's risk management and compliance programs support ethical standards, patient consent, and patient rights and responsibilities.
