Perspectives in Health Information
Management is a peer-reviewed research journal published by the AHIMA
Foundation. It is available online at http://perspectives.ahima.org/. The Spring
2012 issue of this journal includes an article titled “The Impact of Electronic
Health Record Usage on Cancer Registry Systems in Alabama” authored by Shannon
H. Houser, PhD, MPH, RHIA; Shannon Colquitt, RHIA; Kay Clements, MA, RHIA, CCS,
CPC; and Susan Hart-Hester, PhD. This descriptive study revealed specific
benefits and challenges associated with the use of electronic health records
within cancer registry programs. It demonstrates how research can guide HIM
professionals and cancer registry specialists in their efforts to optimize the
use of EHR systems to improve the data workflow efficiency and data quality
within the cancer registry system.
Review Research Article:
Requirements
Answer the following questions based
on your review of the research article “The Impact of Electronic Health Record
Usage on Cancer Registry Systems in Alabama” in the Spring 2012 issue of
Perspective in Health Information Management.
What was the purpose of doing this
study?
What was the sampling method
employed in this study? What is the limitation of this type of sampling method?
What research method was employed in
this study and what procedure was used to employ it with the participants?
What types of statistical analyses
were applied to the data collected in this study?
The author states, “Despite the fact
that 55 of the 67 counties in Alabama are designated as “rural,” nearly all
study participants (97%) were from urban facilities, compared to only 3% from
rural areas.” What factor in this study design do you think influenced (caused)
this disparity in urban versus rural facility participants in the study?
What specific types of patient care
documentation issues that limit the usefulness of the EHR to the cancer
registry program were identified by the participants in this study?
