HSM320 Week 4 Discussions Fremgen, B. (2012). Medical Law and Ethics, 4/e For DeVry University, 4th Edition. Pearson Learning Solutions. Discussion 1 As the new office manager for the Family Practice Medical Group, you are responsible for establishing policies and procedures for maintaining a safe environment for both the staff and patients. Medical waste is an important area that you will be legally responsible for, making sure it is handled safely and appropriately. The four categories of medical waste are: solid waste, chemical waste, radioactive waste, and infectious waste. Pick one of the categories and post your plan for safe handling of the waste. What types of items would be included in the category? What would your policy say about proper disposal? Hello class, This is going to be an interesting and challenging discussion this week. Let me ask those of you who can help research options for biomedical waste disposal in your own work environment as a new office manager. Who would you contract with for this service? Explain the types of items would be included in the category. Fremgen, B. (2012). Medical Law and Ethics, 4/e For DeVry University, 4th Edition. Pearson Learning Solutions. Christina, Good discussion of medical waste and how it is disposed of and thank you for referring to chapter seven readings. We see how complex the waste handling can be and the steps that have to be taken to deal with it. It all goes towards the fact that medical waste is an important safety topic. Since we are studying healthcare, we might as well understand the topic of medical waste, how to protect everybody and what the responsibility and tasks are. It is a very important topic. Why Is it important to select the proper company to collect waste? Discussion 2 The staff of any medical office comes into contact with a variety of PHI. As the office manager of FPMG, what practices would you put in place to ensure compliance with HIPAA? Class, The more I look at our week 4 TCO, the more I think about the importance of the discussions this week and their relevance when it comes to healthcare rights and responsibilities. Given the need to protect the confidentiality of patient records, outline the legal requirements to report vital statistics, certain other patient information and conditions to governmental agencies; evaluate the rationale and justification for these reporting requirements. Patients have rights and providers have responsibilities. Some think that the enforcement of these requirements is costly and time-consuming, but patients rights advocates feel that more should be done. Do you think that the application laws are not strict enough or are they too demanding? I like to hear your opinions. This week's lecture has an interactive tutorial about Medical Record Liabilities. It says that "It is extremely important for all hospital managers to understand Medical Records Liability issues to protect the Healthcare organization and its patients." What can expose the entity to Medical Record Liabilities? What have you learned from this tutorial?
