Prior to beginning work on this discussion forum,
Read Chapters 21, 22, 24, 25, and 27 of Health Informatics: An Interprofessional Approach.
Analyze the Health IT standards discussed in Chapter 22 of your text.
Using the information below, respond to the discussion question provided to you by your instructor. Based on your University of Arizona Global Campus major of study (e.g., Health Information Management, Nursing, Health Administration, Health and Human Services or Public Health) analyze benefits and risks associated with informatics systems and exchange of data in these settings. Specifically, analyze your response based on the Health IT standards discussed in Chapter 22 of your text. Evaluate two of the most substantive risks involved in using these informatics systems based on the privacy and security standards discussed in Chapter 26 of your text. Reflect on the following information:
Society has high expectations of the benefits associated with the effective adoption of informatics systems. Professionals in all areas of health care and health and human services facilitate the effectiveness of these informatics systems by adopting and utilizing standards for the management of patient information in both their clinical and administrative practice. These standards relate to how information is both classified and documented in informatics systems. Reflect on the expected benefits of health informatics applications and the use of informatics standards to support the realization of these benefits.

Multiple pages from the same scholarly website will be counted as one scholarly source.
Guided Response: Respond to at least two of your peers with each response being a minimum of five full sentences. At least one peer response should be to a peer who is in a different University of Arizona Global Campus major than you. Compare and contrast how your peers’ approach to the informatics solution proposed is alike or different than the approach you recommended in your major of study. Who are the specific stakeholders that your major of study must focus on in the development of the informatics solution? Your initial post and responses to peers must be on three different days of the week.
I will attach the two peer discussion post that we will need to responded to.
