We present an alternative method for pre-processing and storing point data, particularly for Geospatial points, by storing multilateration distances to fixed points rather than coordinates such as Latitude and Longitude. We explore the use of this data to improve query performance for some distance related queries such as nearest neighbor and query-within-radius (i.e. “find all points in a set P within distance d of query point q”). Further, we discuss the problem of “Network Adequacy” common to medical and communications businesses, to analyze questions such as “are at least 90% of patients living within 50 miles of a covered emergency …
Enhancing Healthcare Professional And Caregiving Staff Informedness With Data Analytics For Chronic Disease Management, Na Liu, Robert John Kauffman
Enhancing Healthcare Professional And Caregiving Staff Informedness With Data Analytics For Chronic Disease Management, Na Liu, Robert John Kauffman
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
An important area in healthcare to which data analytics can be applied is chronic disease management. The chronic care model is mostly patient-centric, so patients have been considered as the end users of data analytics. The information needs of healthcare providers have been overlooked. Drawing upon the theory of informedness and the transtheoretical model of health behavior change, we use a multicase study approach to investigate the information needs of different caregiving stakeholders in the spectrum of chronic diseases, and how data analytics can be designed to meet the varying needs of professionals and staff to support their informedness.
Medical Practitioners’ Intention To Use Secure Electronic Medical Records In Healthcare Organizations, Omar Enrique Sangurima
Medical Practitioners’ Intention To Use Secure Electronic Medical Records In Healthcare Organizations, Omar Enrique Sangurima
Walden Dissertations and Doctoral Studies
Medical practitioners have difficulty fully implementing secure electronic medical records (EMRs). Clinicians and medical technologists alike need to identify motivational factors behind secure EMR implementation to assure the safety of patient data. Grounded in the unified theory of acceptance and use of technology model, the purpose of this quantitative, correlational study was to examine the relationship between medical practitioners’ perceptions of performance expectancy, effort expectancy, social influence, facilitating conditions, and the intention to use secure EMRs in healthcare organizations. Survey data (N = 126) were collected from medical practitioners from the northeastern United States. The results of the multiple regression …

Impact Of Information Breaches On Health Care Records, Anton Antony Arockiasamy
Walden Dissertations and Doctoral Studies
Although there were almost 3.5 million reported information breaches of health care data in the first quarter of 2019, health care providers do not know the extent of digital and nondigital breaches of patient medical records. The purpose of this quantitative, comparative study was to identify the difference between the individual patient records affected by digital versus nondigital breaches for three types of health care entities in the United States, health care providers, health care plans, and health care clearinghouses. Allman’s privacy regulation theory, the National Institute of Standards and Technology Privacy Framework, and ecological systems theory comprised the theoretical …
