Forms of data in health care.

 

Research  the forms of data

used in the system of your choice. This system could be your own health care

organization, the Patton-Fuller Community Hospital found in the University of

Phoenix Virtual Organizations, or an organization from the course readings.

   Create  a 10- to 15-slide Microsoft®

PowerPoint® presentation, including detailed speaker notes, that

identifies the forms of data collected and used in your chosen system. Include

at least one slide per form of data.

 

  Answer  the following questions:

  Where do the data come

from, such as outside test results? Where do the data

go—patient record, printer, physician folder, or other destination? How are the different forms

of data used? What is the importance of

each form of data? What kinds of data does the

organization send out, such as quality measures, patient billing, purchase

orders, and so forth? What security measures are

taken to protect the data? What kinds of data do

senior executives want mined? What do they use the data

for? Who mines the data and who

uses it? What kinds of statistics

are used to validate the data?

 

Develop  a statistical validation as an example by

mining some data from the system of your choice, graphing it, explaining it,

and discussing why it is important
