Risk Management in Healthcare

Conduct research on approaches to risk management processes, policies, and concerns in your 
current or anticipated professional arena to find an example of a risk management plan. Look for 
a plan with sufficient content to be able to complete this assignment successfully. In a 1,000‐
1,250-word paper, provide an analysis of the risk management plan that includes the following:
1. Summary of the type of risk management plan you selected (new employee, specific 
audience, community‐focused, etc.) and your rationale for selecting that example. 
Describe the health care organization to which the plan applies and the role risk 
management plays in that setting.
2. Description of the standard administrative steps and processes in a typical health care 
organization's risk management program compared to the administrative steps and 
processes you identify in your selected example plan. (Note: For standard risk 
management policies and procedures, look up the MIPPA-approved accrediting body that
regulates the risk management standards in your chosen health care sector, and consider 
federal, state, and local statutes as well.)
3. Analysis of the key agencies and organizations that regulate the administration of safe 
health care in your area of concentration and an evaluation of the roles each one plays in 
the risk management oversight process.
4. Evaluation of your selected risk management plan's compliance with the standards of its 
corresponding MIPPA-approved accrediting body relevant to privacy, health care worker 
safety, and patient safety
