The topic area must relate to the HIM department functions and or services. Some examples of the types of training or in-service you may want to present to employees include, but are not limited to, employee motivation; confidentiality and security of personal health information; teamwork; safety in the work place; communication skills; electronic health record; quality improvement; insurance issues relating to Medicare, Medicaid, or HMOs; or conflict management.

In Week 4, you are required to turn in an outline similar to the format listed below in order to obtain feedback from the instructor on your course project content (this is not a graded assignment, but it is required).

Read the possible topic choices. Choose your term paper topic, and upload it via the Week 2 Dropbox titled Topic Selection. Your topic choice will be reviewed, and you will then receive feedback and or approval of your topic choice. You do not have to select one of the listed topics. If there is a labor relations topic that you want to write about that is not listed, let the instructor know. The appropriateness of the topic will be evaluated against which TCO your paper is intended to address.

For this course project, you will complete a PowerPoint presentation and a paper. The presentation is to represent a simulation of a training or in-service that you present to employees who you are responsible for supervising in an HIM department. You will also contact an HIM director in your local area to discuss planning your presentation and to mentor you through it.

The presentation should be, at a minimum, 10 slides and should include at least two visual aides, such as a picture, table, or chart. Sound is optional.

The paper should be 3–5 pages in addition to the title page, abstract, and references. The Course Project is due in Week 6.
