Patient Information Management<br />

Description<br />

Patient information management is important because <strong>of</strong> the integral role the radiologic<br />

technologist has within the health care team. It is essential for the radiologic technologist to<br />

provide all members <strong>of</strong> the team with a thorough patient record to ensure quality patient care.<br />

Objectives:<br />

1. Relate The Joint Commission standards and Health Insurance Portability and<br />

Accountability Act (HIPAA) regulations regarding the accountability and protection <strong>of</strong><br />

patient information.<br />

2. Evaluate the patient record to ensure The Joint Commission standards and HIPAA<br />

regulations are satisfied.<br />

3. Judge the potential abuses in maintaining confidential patient information.<br />
