About This Document

Prepare and post a short PowerPoint presentation of 5-8 slides with accompanying notes about a current health information technology. The board has created an innovation fund designed to foster improved quality, increased access, or reduced costs in healthcare delivery. Select a health information technology related to genomics, precision medicine, or diagnostics that you would propose to be funded for implementation. Prepare a PowerPoint presentation that describes the selected health information technology, what it does, why it would be beneficial, and what risks may be involve The PowerPoint will need to describe and explain what the selected health information technology does and then analyze how it might improve quality, increase access, and/or reduce the cost of healthcare services in the US.

Non-Invasive Parental Testing:
– Non-Invasive Parental Testing
(NIPT) also known as Non-Invasive
Parental Screening can be defined
as a method of determining the
risk that the foetus would be born
with genetic abnormalities
(Chandrasekharan et al., 2014).
– The test analyses the fragments of
cell free DNA that circulate within
the blood of a pregnant mother,
the analysis of this DNA helps in
detecting genetic abnormalities.

Improved Quality Outcome:
– The implementation of the NIPT
genetic testing within the
healthcare setting would greatly
improve the foetal health
outcome.
– At the same time, it would also
reduce the medical cost
associated with the disease
burden of getting a baby tested
positive for genetic abnormalities
and improve the standard of living
for the parents.
