What is the importance of understanding the minimal data set needed to achieve the purpose of the report? How do health care organizations determine if reporting needs to be static or ad hoc? What are the challenges if data does not exist in an extractable format?
Minimal data is essential in the medical report because it provides accurate and consistent information. Physicians require minimal data to understand the problem of the patients so that they can offer assistance. Minimal data also provide a summary of the full medical report making it easy for the physician to understand the full report (Li et al., 2018). The healthcare determines whether the data need to be static or ad hoc depending on the nature of the finances the story requires during findings. Also, ad hoc data is essential when the confidentiality of the customer information. Keeping customer personal information private is vital in the healthcare sector. If the data cannot be extracted, it may lead to the wrong diagnosis of the patient (Rathi & McWilliams, 2019). Failure of data extraction can also result from using heterogeneous data, which may crash the prognosis and determination of the patient.
- .Describe the requirements for a reporting tool that would facilitate the tracking of a merit-based incentive payment system (MIPS) quality performance in an emergency department environment (e.g., clinical dashboard). In your responses to peers, discuss at a high level, how MIPS quality measure performance is determined for one or more quality measures that may be used by an emergency department.
A clinical dashboard helps the doctors to extract data of the patients in a holistic view. Clinical dashboards influence workflow, care, quality, and patient safety. The use of a clinical dashboard would help the MIPS in quality performance since it helps in the oversight of the errors in the clinical practice (Rathi & McWilliams, 2019). MIPS is in the provision of quality and patients care since the doctors can extract all the patients’ data from the clinical dashboard, making it easy for healthcare to provide services (Li et al., 2018). The clinical dashboard also helps the healthcare in streamlining workflow process, using the merit-based incentive payment system the workflow of the healthcare runs on smoothly since the doctors can work efficiency.
