This is technically 5 different papers but since they each build on each other, I placed it as one order. Please just add references at the end of each paper, no need for multiple title or reference pages. The individual instructions are as follows:
PAPER 1 – Organizational Structure
In 5 pages, write an executive summary in which you provide an overview of a selected health care facility, followed by a research paper about the two major types of health care facilities. Preparation
Select a hospital, a health care clinic, or another health care facility to research throughout the assessments in this course.

Health information technician.
Use a minimum of 6 resources.
PAPER 2 – Requesting Information
Create a 3 page request for information (RFI) for the hospital, health care clinic, or health care facility you selected in Paper 1. A request for information (RFI) is a formal way of telling potential vendors what the requirements of the health care facility are. To prepare for this assessment, research and identify the specific needs and requirements of your chosen facility.
Complete the following:
· Examine and describe the compliance, privacy needs, and requirements of the health care facility.
· Examine and describe the information system needs and requirements of the health care facility.
· List current hardware, software, administrative applications, data storage processes, medical informatics, and so on.

· This includes insurance and managed care companies contracted with the hospital and patient billing, payment methodologies, reimbursement methodologies, Medicare, Medicaid, and any other government programs.
· Provide key components that address the strategic needs (such as administrative, technological, clinical, and organizational needs) of the health care facility.
Write your commentary in the form of a request for information.
Use a minimum of 6 resources.
PAPER 3 – Researching Solutions
Create a 3 page request for proposal (RFP) for the hospital, health care clinic, or other health care facility you selected in Paper 1. A request for proposal (RFP) formally asks vendors to submit proposals on how they would resolve the needs and wants of the health care setting. Prior to creating a RFP, one needs to be familiar with the various standards for the health care setting, as well as the field in general.
Using the Internet and Capella library, complete the following:
· To research and analyze the critical needs of the health care facility, begin by creating a list of questions for a prospective vendor, focusing on security, compliance, and regulatory criteria. Create a list of 10 key areas that would be addressed in the RFP.
· Research, examine, and evaluate HIPAA, electronic health records, and quality improvement initiatives.
· Explain why these three topics are critical to the successful implementation.
· Describe how all three areas are related to one another.
· Examine and evaluate how information technology (IT) works within a health care setting.
· Analyze how the IT and administration teams can work in a collaborative environment.
· Evaluate the policies and human resource guidelines of the health care facility.
In the form of a request for proposal, provide an analysis of the key items above for your chosen health care facility. It should be at least 3 to 5 pages in length (excluding the title and references pages), with supporting references in APA format.
Use at least 6 references.
PAPER 4 – Integrating Solutions
The health care organization will work with its chosen information management vendor to integrate an effective solution to the needs that have been identified.

· The process for integrating a new system into a health care organization, including payment systems and electronic data interchange.
· Strategies for implementing change management, including the associated training and development needs of departments and employees.
· The ongoing support, development, and quality indicators of a successful integration.
· The return on investment (ROI) a health care organization might expect from implementing a new information management system, including the impact on quality of care. Find examples where patient data, surveys, and research were used to demonstrate improved outcomes and results.
Write a 3 page analysis of the solutions to be integrated into the health care facility. Address the following:
· Analyze how the new system would be integrated into the health organization.
§ Explain how various payment systems would be part of the solution.
§ Analyze how electronic data interchange works.

· RFI examining the specific needs and requirements of your chosen health care facility.
· RFP of the critical needs of your chosen health care facility.
· Integration solutions from the chosen vendor, including how information will be ensured for quality, how it will be secured, and how it will be utilized.
For Part 2 of this assessment, combine the components you have already completed into a strategic IT infrastructure plan. The parts of the IT infrastructure plan that you have already completed should total about 7 pages in length.
To finish your strategic IT infrastructure plan, add a summary evaluating the plan overall. Your summary should demonstrate your understanding of the newly integrated solution and the process that should be used to get there. Use the following prompts as a guideline for your summary:
