PANOPTO PRESENTER NOTES
GANTT CHART:
Telehealth is a two-way, real-time interactive communication between a patient and a physician
or practitioner at a distant site through telecommunications equipment that connects the patient
and clinician through real-time audio and video technology (AMA, 2025)
Telehealth adoption allows health care providers to bridge the gap in care by increasing
continuity of care, reducing patient travel burden, especially in rural and other underserved
populations, which ultimately helps health systems and physician practices focus more on
chronic disease management, enhancing patient wellness, improving efficiency, providing higher
quality of care, and increasing patient satisfaction. Some studies have shown how interventions
involving telehealth implementation improved HbA1c levels, treatment adherence, and self-
efficacy in diabetic patients. Implementing telehealth within this organization provides the
optimal alternative solution to traditional in-person care delivery for the underserved patients in
our community who live further than 45 minutes away from our facilities and suffer from
chronic health conditions such as hypertension and diabetes.
This Gantt chart displays a structured representation of the System Development Life Cycle
(SDLC) for implementing a new telehealth system in a midsize rural hospital using the waterfall
model. It outlines the five key phases of SDLC—planning, analysis, design and development,
implementation, and evaluation—each phase with designated subtasks, task managers, and
timelines. The chart highlights task dependencies and milestone achievements, ensuring seamless
integration across multiple medical offices. The development process spans a defined period,
with a multidisciplinary team, with each member being assigned to specific subtasks. This
timeline, with implementations, displays a 2-month, 1-week structured deployment of the new
telehealth system for this organization. Ultimately, this Gantt chart serves as a strategic roadmap
to guide the successful development and integration of the new telehealth system.
STAKEHOLDERS:
Successful implementation of a telehealth system should be built with consideration of the
people that the system is being designed for. Therefore, the team of stakeholders will be
composed of many players to ensure diverse perspectives are represented throughout the design
and implementation process. The team will include clinical representatives such as physicians,
nurses, and other care team members, administration representatives such as schedulers, billing/
coders, and end-users such as patients and their caregivers.
The core stakeholders for this implementation project will include the Chief Information Officer
(CIO), Chief Financial Officer (CFO), Information System Architect (ISA/ IST), Systems
Analyst (SA), and the Nurse Informaticist who will also be responsible for the role of the Project
Manager (PM).
The Chief Information Officer (CIO) is a senior executive responsible for aligning the organization's IT
strategy with its business objectives. the CIO will maintain a global perspective by ensuring daily
, business operations run efficiently, driving innovation in key value-creating business areas, and
exploring long-term strategic opportunities for IT and the business.
The Chief Financial Officer (CFO) is the senior executive responsible for overseeing an organization's
financial operations. As a key advisor, the CFO analyzes the financial aspects of this project from the
beginning which entails knowing how much it will cost, how it will be financed, the financial
impact of the project implementation phase, and evaluate budget and Return On Investment
(ROI) against project objectives. The CFO will also explore diverse funding opportunities
through government grants, sponsorships, community support, vendor discounts, and internal
budget adjustments.
The Information Systems Technician (IST), or the Information Systems Architect (ISA), will assume the
pivotal role for this implementation, by applying a comprehensive approach to system design,
meticulously planning the architecture and infrastructure to support the project's objectives,
implementing system integration, implementing robust measures to safeguard data and systems,
strategic vendor selection, conducting thorough evaluations of emerging technologies, and contributing
to meticulous budget planning
The Systems Administrator (SA) plays a vital role in maintaining the operational integrity of an
organization's IT infrastructure by ensuring the smooth functioning of both software and
hardware, proactively monitoring system performance, and swiftly resolving technical issues to
guarantee stability and security.
The Informatics Nurse Specialist-Project Manager (PM) is a crucial leader who oversees
healthcare technology projects from start to finish. They are responsible for team formation,
resource allocation, ensuring the project meet deadlines, budgets, and quality standards,
managing risks; as well as effectively communicating project progression with the
multidisciplinary team and stakeholders.
PLANNING:
The planning phase of the Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC) is crucial for defining a
telehealth project's scope, objectives, and direction. This involves conducting feasibility studies,
ensuring EHR infrastructure alignment and regulatory compliance, and gathering stakeholder
input to identify system needs and workflows. Key activities include developing timelines,
budgets, and risk mitigation plans, culminating in final approvals for project progression.
1. Defining the Project Scope: This step places emphasis on thorough planning and market
research. The Chief Information Officer (CIO) and Nurse Informaticist- Project Manager
(PM) collaborate to establish and define the needed core functionalities of the telehealth
application, define clear project objectives, determine its size, and set parameters that
align with the organization's strategic goals. They will perform a comprehensive market
analysis in order to definitively identify the target audience to obtain a better
understanding of the user needs. This process typically takes three days to complete
