Describe the problems that can result from even a temporary loss of the EHR, including the impact on patient care and revenue.

Describe how a facility can prevent these disasters from impacting patient care and revenue by discussing backup plans, policies, equipment, or whatever your research indicates might be helpful. Be specific and comprehensive. Discuss many options, not just one.

Post substantive responses to at least two classmates, in which you explain to your classmates what items they missed and why it is important to include them. All replies must be substantive, and not merely $$I agree$$ postings. You must advance the discussion.
