Discussion:
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
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.
