System Vision Document for Mental Health Intervention System

This System Vision Document proposes a mental health intervention system that improves the quality of health and data sharing to provide better care. It discusses the problem, system capabilities, and business benefits of the proposed system.

Problem description
Each nation globally is toiling to improve their medical services to the citizens. Due to this there
have been changes when it comes to the health sector, many have began to adopt implementation
of new health system that improves services that are offered to them (Dennis, Wixom &
Tegarden, 2015). An example of a mental health intervention system is NewAccess, which have
been found to help the youth aged 17 to 25. This system mainly targets depression and anxiety
patients, and when these problems are identified to the mental illness patients’ proper medical
attention could be provided. This system has been based on the desire to assist health sector to
keep process of reforming drive efficiencies such as Headspace organization. it is recommended
that the new system be develop since it would; help enhance the quality of health, and improve
the data that is shared to the patient, such as reducing on the rate of hospital admission due to
prescribed medication (Dennis, Wixom & Tegarden, 2015). With the system, it would allow the
doctors, hospitals and healthcare providers to view and share personal data to provide better care.
The problem encountered by Headspace organization was the young persons with the mental
illness might see multiple professional before they could get the help they want. They are
expected to retell their story each time they visit a medical staff in the hospital emergency
department, or psychologist. But with the development of the new system the story would be
captured for the first time it is told. This would provide successive professional case notes and
story which is enriched and the young mental individuals would get the assistance they require
appropriately.
System capabilities
This system would be much cost efficient to the Headspace organization when they implement it.
The program will have the capability to distribute data of the patient all across the various

departments in the hospital with ease and accuracy (Munzner, 2014). The system will provide the
platform that enables patients to be able to register their data online from everywhere they are
irrespective of the country and they would have access summary of their personal health
information (Harris, 2016). The system would have an enabled management of the patient record
which will be efficient and this would make treatment decision to be much easier (Duckett &
Willcox, 2015). The current issue the patients are encountering is re-tell their stories again and
this is harder for the professionals to offer them help. With the new system functionalities would
promote faster diagnosis of their problem since all will be under one system such as the patient
data diagnoses, lab results, and even decision support capability for every patient case (Harris,
2016). When it comes to the decision support capabilities the system has the ability to alert the
health care providers on the potential drug and their interactions on various cases (Duckett &
Willcox, 2015). Additionally, the system has been enhanced with latest security technology and
this ensures that patient health data is secured from access from the unauthorized individuals
(Montgomery, 2017). This ensures there is improvement of the securing of patient information
and there is a better facilitation to understand health problems the mental patients are facing,
since all the reports are intact.
Business benefits
The overall aim of a health system is to improve health of the patient and improve health system
inefficiencies. In this case, the patient are re-telling their health problem to every health
professional since there is no system in place to store all personal data of each patient together
(Harris, 2016). The improvement of this would help address on the inefficiencies which have
exists for long. It is anticipated that the new system would offer the following business benefits
to Headspace organization:

Digital health to the patients: It will be much easier how patients would benefits from the new
system; since the mental illness patients’ information will be accessible from specific location.
This will help that the data is shared much easily between the healthcare professionals
(Montgomery, 2017).
There is more time with the patients: with the new system implementations there will be much
less time when it comes to chasing clinical information investigation, scanning or even chasing
referrals (Wasson, 2015).
There is better access: with the usage of the new improved system the health care information
will be available in one central place and accessed online. this will ensure it can be accessed by
the healthcare professionals and at the same time patients could access it in the online platform
on their records.
Improved safety: In case of emergency situation, the healthcare providers can be able to link up
to the new system to access the health data of the patient and be able to address the issue that
affects them quickly.
