Problem:
When the Affordable Care Act was passed, it came with a requirement of empirical evidence. Research on EBP increased significantly. Application of EBP spread to allied health professions, education, healthcare technology, and more. Health organizations began to adopt and promote EBP.
You will examine healthcare organization websites and analyze to what extent these organizations use EBP. Choose a professional healthcare organization's website (e.g., a reimbursing body, an accredited body, or a national initiative). Explore the website to determine where and to what extent EBP is evident.
Give a description of the healthcare organization website you reviewed. Describe where, if at all, EBP appears (e.g., the mission, vision, philosophy, and/or goals of the healthcare organization or in other locations on the website). Then, explain whether this healthcare organization's work is grounded in EBP and why or why not. Finally, explain whether the information you discovered on the healthcare organization's website has changed your perception of the healthcare organization. Be specific and provide examples.
