Hmis Data Quality Notes Summary
Hmis Data Quality Notes Summary
Allocate Resources - Determine whether you have sufficient resources, and decide how
you will procure those missing
Current Reality Tree - Used when the root causes of multiple problems need to be
analyzed all at once
Data Cleansing - Follows after the complete profiling of data concerns, which could
range anywhere from removing abnormalities to merging repeated information
Data Integrity - The process enhances the reliability of the information being used by an
organization
Data quality tool - Analyzes information and identifies incomplete or incorrect data
Define goals and objectives - Address the question, "What do you want to accomplish?"
Define Metrics for success - How will you determine if you have achieved your goal?
Designate team member responsibilities - Create a general team plan with overall roles
that each team member will play
Extract, Transform, Load (ETL) - Tools which allow the optimization of the alimentation
process
Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA) - Aims to find various modes of failure within
a system
Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA) - Is used when there is a new product or
process or when there are changes or updates in a product and when a problem is
reported through customer feedback
Fault Tree Analysis (FTA) - Used in risk and safety analysis. It uses boolean logic to
determine the root causes of an undesirable event
Fix - Fixing the problem and monitoring to confirm and validate that the correct root
cause was identified
Investigate - Creation of a diagnostic plan and identification of the root causes through
careful analysis of the diagnostic data
Lot Quality Assurance Sampling (LQAS) - Is a tool that allows the use of small random
samples to distinguish between different groups of data elements (or lots) with high and
low data quality
Matching - Is the identification and merging of related entries within or across data sets
Monitoring - Refers to the deployment of controls to ensure conformity of data to
business rules set by the organization
Pareto Analysis - It is used when there are multiple potential causes to a problem
Pareto Analysis - States that 20 percent of the work creates 80 percent of the results
Root cause analysis - Is a problem solving method that identifies the root causes of
problems or events instead of simply addressing the obvious symptoms
Routine Data Quality Assessment (RDQA) - Is a simplified version of the Data Quality
Audit tool which allows programs and projects to verify and assess the quality of their
reported data
Schedule Milestones - Outline the deadline and timelines in the implementation phase
