Scenario
A large integrated healthcare system recognizes the need for effectively managing change to their health information technology and systems. They currently have no formal governance method to evaluate and facilitate these changes. They contracted with your consulting firm to support them with a best practice recommendation on how to set up an oversight process. Given your expertise from the module readings, lectures and your own research develop a presentation on how this healthcare system would benefit from creation of a multidisciplinary HIT Innovation Steering Committee that monitors and facilitates change.

Introduction

Technical Oversight Committee
The technical oversight committee is a group of people who have technical knowledge and experience in the company’s products, services, and business processes.
The purpose of this committee is to review proposed changes to the company’s processes and product or service offerings before they are implemented by management. The technical oversight committee will ensure that any new technology or software deployed by your organization meets all necessary requirements for use within your organization. This includes verifying that all required documentation has been created or updated as necessary; ensuring that any new process has been tested thoroughly enough so it can be used effectively; determining if there are any security issues associated with using certain tools; making sure this new technology does not interfere with existing systems (e.g., network security); etcetera…
Change Management Committee
The purpose of a change management committee is to ensure that all changes to the system are documented, tested and approved.
The change management committee is responsible for approving changes to the system. It also ensures that all changes are documented before they can be implemented into production.
