Imagine that you are the Chief Information Officer or Director of Information Technology of a
large long-term care system in your community and you have been asked to create a
presentation about information technology at your organization for members of your community.
The organization can be a nursing home, a home care and/or hospice agency, an assisted living
organization, or a continuum of care organization.
TIPS: 
• You can base your imaginary organization on a real organization in your community. Review
any materials about the real organization as well as its website. 
• If you completed the Leader Presentation assignment in Week 4, you can use the same
imaginary organization you used for that assignment. 
For this assignment, you’ll create a PowerPoint with 8-10 slides that addresses the points
below. Use a minimum of three sources and include a reference slide that lists the sources in
APA format. 
Points to address:
1. Compare the use of information systems in long-term care compared to other areas of the
health care industry. 
2. Describe the software technology you use for managing the health information of your
patients/residents/clients. 
3. Explain how you manage protected health information and HIPAA in your organization. 
4. How do your patients access their own health information (patient portal, apps, jump drives,
etc.)? 
5. How do you manage the billing and reimbursement processes in your information systems? 
6. How large is your department and what positions are in the department? 
7. What do you think the biggest challenges are for information system management in longterm care?
Keep in mind that the slides should serve as a visual aid, while the speaker’s notes should
contain more detailed information. Please remember to use: 
• An easy-to-view layout and color scheme 
• Appropriate graphic elements 
• Speaker notes in the Notes pane of the PowerPoint. 
• Limited text on slides 
• A title slide and a reference slide
