1PROJECT PROPOSAL AND PLAN
Executive Summary
The report is based on development of Electronic Health Record in Australian
Pharmaceutical Industries. The existing EHR system of Australian Pharmaceutical Industries
fails to deliver of accurately billing data for proper claim submittal. Therefore, a new system
with new features are developed for the company. The scope of this project study is to design,
develop, code, and host the electronic health record system for Australian Pharmaceutical
Industries. The healthcare solutions should be complaint and it is up-to-date with enhance of
processes which lead to quality patient care. The solution will integrate with the existing
applications by utilization of HL7 interface and there is also solution which is packaged with
7days/24hours/365days support.

3PROJECT PROPOSAL AND PLAN
1.0 Introduction to project
The project plan is based on development of Electronic Health Record in Australian
Pharmaceutical Industries. The Electronic Health Record (EHR) is an electronic record of the
patient health evidence which is being produced by happenstances into daily care delivering
setting. The information system is being generated of patient data such as demographics of
patients, development notes, medications, historical medical history as well as workshop
data. The system is automated and streamlined of clinician workflows and has capability to
create of comprehensive record of the medical patient meeting and supported of healthcare
activities. The government, industry and medical centres are used of EHR to view as well as
manage into one place. It is simplified that this system is known as clinical information
systems.
The plan is analyzed from project management perspective where a plan is prepared
to determine the start in addition end date to the plan work with scope of project, objectives,
constraints and statement of work. There is also determination of project team members as
well as responsibilities of stakeholders those are involved into the project work. Work
breakdown structure and project schedule is analyzed to determine the required time for
completion of this work plan. Risks are also analyzed so that further prevention are to be
taken to mitigate any delays into the project work. Quality plan is also prepared to check for
quality of the proposed system into the company.
2.0 Description of proposed project
Australian Pharmaceutical Industries seeks to remove of its existing record heath
record system from use and implement a new solution which maintain of diverse features into
it. The benefits of the proposed system is enhanced of patient access to care and greater

surgical volume. The scope of this system is implementation of user friendly electronic health
record which is being hosted by means of system service provider.
2.1 Problems and solutions of EHR system in Australian Pharmaceutical
Industries
The existing EHR system of Australian Pharmaceutical Industries fails to deliver of
accurately billing data for proper claim submittal. The proposed healthcare record system is
anticipated of solutions to providing of enhanced charge capture functionalities. The system
is not failing to meet with mandates acted by Department of Health and Human Services. The
proposed solution is certified to electronic health record technology. There is also
maintenance of functionality to collect as well as analyse of meaningful use. The system is
not interfaced with new billing systems and get of new system to find new way towards
interface. The project plan is aligned with mission as well as goals of practice to standardize
payment and health related operations. The healthcare solutions should be complaint and it is
up-to-date with enhance of processes which lead to quality patient care. The solution will
integrate with the existing applications by utilization of HL7 interface and there is also
solution which is packaged with 7days/24hours/365days support. There are also updates as
well as enhancements which is provided of no such addition cost to the business practices.
2.2 Recommended option impact
The proposed solution has some impacts on following areas such as:
Impact on existing clinical environment: Impact on the clinical workflow is being
insignificant then there is required for minimal training as well as education for preparation
of staffs.
Impact on existing financial environment: The financial impact is moderate because
of continual licensing as well as cost of maintenance is being associated with purchase of the

5PROJECT PROPOSAL AND PLAN
solutions. The financial constraints are being hinder the business practices which is needed
for acquire of new solutions. It is such a decision to avoid of any loan procurement.
Impact on existing administrative environment: The solution is being anticipated for
reduction of errors into clinical documents, maximization of revenue capture and also
enhance of administration reporting for entire practices. The proposed process will affect
daily duties for the staffs.
Impact on IT: There are support of services which is required to provide of 7/24/365
support to the patients. Downtime support structure is developed to meet with end user’s
requirements, and secondary support is failed to the super uses established at time of the
implementation processes.
2.3 Implementation plan
By the contractual agreement, the software vendor is going to provide of integration
testing for the software interfaces which will able to transmit of data among the systems.
Testing of proposed system is included but it is not limited to HL7 interfaces as well as
information exchanges. The software vendor is agreed to the load agency as the service. In
order for transferring of data, the software vendor is required to develop, transfer and load job
for the database. The vendor is provided of validation testing on customer completed with
figure necessities. After achievement of authentication testing, the client is required to grow
of testing scripts to authenticate that the software is being working as it is calculated. Post
implementation is also included into the study. The vendor is agreed all the support changes,
upgradation of codes and enhancements of customers prior to implement into production.
Testing is not revealed with the system issues and it should use for identification of errors
which affect payment as well as operations of proposed system.
