Prepare a workplace brief (8-10 double-spaced pages) to address a privacy breach that occurred in a health care organization. Include the consequences of failure to act and evidence-based recommendations for addressing the breach.
Health care is one of the most heavily regulated major industries in the United States. Leaders are challenged to stay current and to comply with federal, state, and local laws and their associated regulations. Health care organizations are also responsible to meet industry standards. In some cases, payers equate meeting industry standards with achieving and maintaining accreditation. In fact, many payers consider accreditation a minimum condition of participation. In addition, individual licensure and certification requirements establish basic expectations for health care leaders’ professional conduct.
In summary, health care leaders are responsible to:
Meet ethical personal, professional conduct, certification, and licensure expectations.
Comply with local, state, and federal health care and human resources laws.
Provide evidence of compliance with existing regulations and scan the field for emerging regulations.
Identify and meet appropriate accrediting body standards (for example, Joint Commission’s National Patient Safety Goals standards).
As an individual’s health care leadership career advances, so does the corresponding level of accountability. Not knowing the laws or regulations is not an excuse for not complying with them.
This assessment allows you to demonstrate your knowledge of and skills relating to compliance concepts, and governmental and regulatory agencies that oversee health care service delivery, billing, and general operations. You will also have the opportunity to apply the components necessary to initiate and maintain an effective compliance program. Finally, you will consider relevant human resources laws that may pertain to your compliance recommendations.
In this assessment, you are assuming the role of an early careerist in risk management and quality improvement at one of Vila Health’s community-based hospitals. Vila Health is a medium-sized system of health operating facilities in Minnesota and Wisconsin. You are working on a team-based initiative under the supervision of the Vila Health Chief Compliance Officer. Your role is to assist in addressing a specific compliance risk regarding a breach of privacy and a potential HIPAA violation. A Vila Health employee has disclosed—without prior written authorization—a patient’s protected personal health information.
Here is the information the team has collected about the privacy breach and potential HIPAA violations to date. A Vila Health supervisor instructed an employee to obtain pre-authorization for an upcoming surgical procedure for a patient. The Vila Health employee submitted confidential, protected health care information about the patient to the insurance company. The Member Services Representative at the insurance company contacted the Vila Health supervisor. The insurance company representative indicated that further discussion of the matter without prior written consent from the patient is prohibited.
As part of the team exploring theprivacy breach, you will prepare a workplace brief with authoritative, evidence-based references to support your work.
You are already familiar with HIPAA but may want to conduct independent research to enhance your knowledge. Consult this resource for additional guidance on how to conduct research using credible sources: Health Care Administration Undergraduate Library Research Guide.

Purpose:
The purpose of this assignment is intended to allow the student to show evidence of achievement of the following course objective:
Explain how the advanced practice nurse applies and integrates broad, organizational, client-centered, and culturally appropriate concepts in the planning, delivery, management, and evaluation of evidence-based clinical prevention and population care and services to individuals, families, and aggregated/identified populations.
The Concept Map assignments are a progressive learning activity that builds with each assignment. Each week you will be taking steps to create a personal nursing concept map and relating it to a nursing theory of your choice. This will then be used, along with a systems theory, in your final paper assignment.
Some weekly assignments will ask you to submit a rough draft of your concept map work to show your progress and keep you on track. In week 9, you will post your concept map with a brief explanation to the discussion board for peer review. The final Concept Map will be submitted along with your Final Paper. The final paper is a combination of the concept map assignment you complete during the course.
Description:
For this week’s Concept Map paper, you will be focusing on concepts and NOT a theory.
