LLUH Introduces New Site for Policy & Procedure Management

As Loma Linda University Health continues to grow, the organization has struggled to maintain an ever-growing tide of policies, procedures and other important institutional documents. In response to this challenge, a team led by DP Harris, LLU vice president for information services and academic information systems, was tasked in 2012 to devise a solution to address this need.

In the fall of 2013, LLUH unveiled a sneak preview of “PolicyTech,” a new web platform for managing policies, procedures, and other institutional documents. As of March 3, 2014, PolicyTech will officially serve as the permanent home of institutional documents for LLUH.

PolicyTech replaces several existing intranet sites while simplifying policy creation, collaboration, and distribution. PolicyTech also provides advanced search capabilities, making institutional documents much easier to find and manage. Users will still access policies much the same way as before, via links to institutional documents on VIP. These links will now simply redirect them to PolicyTech.

Instructions are available on VIP. Additional training for advanced roles will be disseminated by entity policy managers.
