    • Granular

    • Consistent

    • Defined

    • Current

    Correct Answer

    When the value of health data is reliable, it means that the data is consistent. Consistency refers to the accuracy and uniformity of the data, indicating that it is dependable and can be trusted. In the context of health data, consistency is crucial as it ensures that the information is reliable for making informed decisions and analysis. Granularity, defined, and current are not suitable terms to describe the reliability of health data.

    • Demographic data

    • Clinical data

    Correct Answer
    A. Financial data
    Explanation
    Health information managers are responsible for managing and organizing healthcare data. This includes demographic data, epidemiological data, and clinical data. However, financial data is not typically within their purview. Financial data is usually handled by healthcare administrators or financial managers who specialize in budgeting, billing, and revenue management. Health information managers primarily focus on ensuring the accuracy, accessibility, and security of patient health records and other clinical data.

    • Promulgation of health policies

    • Cleaning of health data for health policies

    • Analysis of health data for health policies

    Correct Answer
    A. Promulgation of health policies
    Explanation
    Health management professionals are responsible for various tasks related to health policies, such as cleaning and analyzing health data, as well as collecting health data. However, promulgation of health policies is not a duty of health management professionals. Promulgation refers to the act of promoting or publicizing policies, which is typically done by government officials or policymakers. Health management professionals may contribute to the development or implementation of health policies, but they are not primarily responsible for promulgating them.

    What is determined by how the data are being used and their context?   - ProProfs

    What is determined by how the data are being used and their context?  

    • Clarity

    • Definition

    • Precision

    • Timeliness

    Correct Answer
    A. Clarity
    Explanation
    The clarity of data is determined by how it is being used and its context. In order for data to be clear, it needs to be easily understood and free from ambiguity. The way data is used and the context in which it is used can greatly impact its clarity. If data is being used in a way that is unclear or the context in which it is being used is not well-defined, then the clarity of the data may be compromised. Therefore, the clarity of data is dependent on how it is being used and the context in which it is used.

    Which of these is not a key process of data?

    • Warehousing

    • Accuracy

    • Collection

    • Application

    Correct Answer
    A. Accuracy
    Explanation
    Accuracy is not a key process of data because it refers to the quality or correctness of data rather than a specific process. Accuracy is an important aspect that should be maintained throughout all the key processes of data, such as collection, warehousing, and application. However, it is not a process in itself. The other options listed, including warehousing, collection, and application, are all key processes involved in managing and utilizing data effectively.

    Reliability is not a characteristic of data because it refers to the consistency and dependability of the data source or the method used to collect the data. While accuracy, currency, and consistency are all important characteristics of data, reliability focuses more on the trustworthiness and credibility of the data.
