1. Develop a mini case, similar to the Mini Case Example below. Please consider a topic for your organization as a real case.

2. Use the Logical Framework to develop an actionplanfor your mini-case.

Mini Case Development Example:

Title: The Decision to Develop an IT Strategic Project Plan

Major themes: Strategic planning

Background Information: Meadow Hills Hospital is a 211-bed acute care hospital with 400 members on its medical staff. Meadow serves a population of 300,000. There are three other similarly sized hospitals in the region. As an organization, Meadow Hills is very well run. It has a good reputation in the community and is considered to be technically advanced based on its investments in imaging technology. The organization is also in a strong financial position, with $238 million in reserves. Meadow Hills has never had an information technology strategic plan. Information Systems Challenge The IT function reports to the Meadow Hills chief financial officer (CFO). The CEO and other members of the senior leadership team have largely left IT decisions up to the CFO. As a result the organization's financial systems are very well developed. Computerized provider order entry (CPOE), and electronic medical record (EMR) system, and a PACS have not been implemented. IT support for departments such as nursing, pharmacy, laboratory, imaging, and risk management is limited. The Meadow Hills IT team is well regarded and the limited IT support for clinical processes has not drawn complaints for the nursing or medical staff.

The organization does not currently have a chief information officer (CIO). The CEO has never felt the need to pay attention to IT. However, he is worried that reimbursement based on care quality will arrive at Meadow Hills soon. He also believes that the Meadow Hills Clinical Laboratory and Imaging Center would be more competitive if it had stronger IT support; rival labs and imaging centers are able to offer electronic access to test results. And he suspects that the lack of IT support may eventually lead to nurses and physicians choosing to practice elsewhere.

Please note the one that above is just an example.

Work that needs to be done:

1. Mini case for your topic., similar to the one above.
2. A Logic Framework Table for your mini case.
