Discussion 5-1
During the implementation of a CIS, what is the impact on stakeholders across the organization?
How does it impact staff? Patients? Support your answer with relevant sources.
In response to your peers, evaluate their response and compare to yours, and discuss how your
peers could have defined the impact to stakeholders, staff, and patients in a different manner.
Provide feedback on where there might be gaps in their analysis as well as where you might have
overlooked something too.
To complete this assignment, review the Discussion Rubric document.
The impact on implementing a clinical information system (CIS) can be taxing and
challenging during the implementation phases making the choice to move over to one extremely
daunting for stakeholders. However, the end product of having a well-functioning CIS is well
worth the growing pains of implementing one. Dohan and Tan identify three broad clusters of
barriers a medical practice may face during the implementation process: Infrastructure-based
barriers, process-based barriers, and outcome-based barriers (Or, Dohan, & Tan, 2014).
Infrastructure based barriers include staying compliant to government regulations, system
functional needs of the people using the platform, lack of financial and technology support, and
the inconsistency between work policy, procedures, and workflow (Or, Dohan, & Tan, 2014).
This becomes challenging for stakeholders like nurses and doctors to perform their best work
which may result in worse patient care.
People that have been in the medical field for a long period of time may not have the base
level of computer literacy to work a CIS. This fact would be classified as a process-based barrier
