CASE STUDIES IN HEALTH INFORMATION MANAGEMENT

These Case Studies are developed to assess the student’s ability to reference previous knowledge or use of critical thinking to find solutions to the cases. Students may have to use resources to locate the information they need to correctly answer the cases.  These include previous course texts or Internet searches, although most of the concepts have been discussed in previous course work.  The cases resemble ‘real-life scenarios” that graduates may encounter.  Be resourceful and apply concepts to answer the questions. Justify your reasoning and/or provide your reference for each case.
