Stage 3 Assignment Instructions
The first step is to incorporate the feedback you received on your Stage 2 assignment, making any needed corrections or adjustments. If you have not incorporated the feedback from your Stage 1 assignment, you should do so prior to submitting Stage 3. For this assignment, you will add Section III to Sections I and II of the System Recommendation Report (SRR).
Using the case study, the overview above, Course Content readings, and external resources, develop your Section III on ethical, legal and regulatory policy issues. Approximate lengths for each section are provided as a guideline; be sure to provide all pertinent information. Apply specific information from the case study to address each area listed below.
III. Ethical, Legal and Regulatory Policy Issues
For each topic, you will provide:
DO NOT copy the definitions from the class resources or other sources, but use your own words and provide enough information to demonstrate your understanding of each topic.
The “right” and “wrong” answers have to do with whether or not you correctly define each issue as it relates to an EHR technology solution and provide a well-supported explanation for how it will be accommodated. Your responses will be evaluated on whether they are applicable to an EHR solution, appropriately defined, adequately explained, and are appropriate to the Midtown Family Clinic.

Formatting Your Assignment
For academic writing, the writer is expected to write in the third person. In third person, the writer avoids the pronouns I, we, my, you, your, and ours. The third person is used to make the writing more objective by taking the individual, the “self,” out of the writing. This method is very helpful for academic writing, a form in which facts, not opinion, drive the tone of the text. Writing in the third person allows the writer to come across as unbiased and thus more informed. The Report is to be written for the Midtown Family Clinic, and reference should not be made by name to individuals who own or work in the Clinic.
EVALUATION CRITERIA/GRADING RUBRIC:
