Objective
Identify a healthcare practice process that could be improved through a technology integration or describe a technology that has been or could be incorporated into a graduate-level scholarly project.
Purpose
A gap analysis identifies the difference between the current state and the desired future state of a process or practice. This analysis clarifies what changes are needed to achieve improvement.
