Health care Y2K resource is now available
With the year 2000 deadline fast approaching, hospitals, other health care providers and the medical device industry are scrambling to complete a process that in many cases was started too late.
What may have once been a logistical issue is burgeoning into an overwhelming problem, compounded by the scarcity of time, rising costs, and a lack of programming resources and expertise.
As the Y2K issue moves far beyond a mere "technological" issue, American Health Consultants, publisher of QI/TQM, has published the Hospital Manager's Y2K Crisis Manual, a compilation of resources for nontechnical hospital managers.
This 150-page reference manual includes information, in nontechnical language, on the problems your facility will face, the potential fixes, and the possible consequences, including:
Will your computers and software work in 2000?What does Y2K mean for patient care?
What will happen to your medical devices?
How can you make sure your vendors are Y2K-compliant?
Are you at legal risk due to Y2K?
Are you prepared if Y2K delays Health Care Financing Administration payments?
The Hospital Manager's Y2K Crisis Manual is available now for $149.
