,Chapter 33: Informatics and the Future of Healthcare
Hardy: Hardy: Health Informatics, 3rd Edition
MULTIPLE CHOICE
1. Data science includes data analytics. The role of the healthcare data analyst role is to discover:
a. patterns in care
b. gaps in the system
c. technology problems
d. revenue opportunities
ANS: A
Collected healthcare data and analyzing big data sets can be challenging regarding
understanding and stripping away the data that is meaningless. Meaningful healthcare data
must have actionable insight to be useful.
DIF: Cognitive Level: Knowledge
2. Which term is analogous to future research?
a. Futuristics
b. Futurology
c. Foresightology
d. Rationalists
ANS: B
Futurist research includes foresight, prospective studies, and prognostic studies that are
rational and systematic to state what is possible, probable, and preferable.
DIF: Cognitive Level: Knowledge
3. Strategic planning for health informatics to implement technology applications should take
how long?
a. 6 months to 1 year
b. 1 to 2 years
c. 1 to 3 years
d. 5 to 10 years
ANS: C
A professional health and informatics specialist should utilize the traditional forecasting and
planning method for future implementation for 1 to 3 years to vet the process. Long-range
planning can take 5 to 10 years before incorporating.
DIF: Cognitive Level: Remember
4. Becky has been asked to review the historical data for patients in the Dallas, Texas area who
have been diagnosed with Varicella in the last six months. This type of analysis is known as?
a. Trend
b. Predictive
c. Visual
d. Extrapolation
, ANS: A
Trend analysis involves looking at historical data to identify trends over time. Some trends
Becky may see includes specific zip codes with higher rates, specific months with higher
rates, and specific populations with higher rates.
DIF: Cognitive Level: Apply
5. Machine learning strengthens health care by providing research and predictability. In the
future, machine learning may provide:
a. Incentives
b. Normalization
c. Supplementation
d. Development
ANS: B
Machine learning allows establishing models that can analyze data and deliver results quickly,
providing historical and real-time data. Machine learning in health care will allow providers to
make better decisions on patient's treatment options, which lead to improved quality patient
care.
DIF: Cognitive Level: Understand
6. An example of a newer data visualization tool used for large data sets is:
a. UpSet plot
b. Pie chart
c. Bar graph
d. Data map
ANS: A
UpSet is a new data visualization tool that focuses on large data and displays information in a
storylike manner, intersecting numerous data points. Pie charts, bar graphs, and data maps are
typically used for small data sets with a confined sampling of data.
DIF: Cognitive Level: Apply
7. A society trend that health informaticians are tracking is:
a. Aging population
b. Chronic diseases
c. Healthcare costs
d. Healthcare shortage
ANS: C
Healthcare trends in society include costs. Costs for health care continue to rise and are
predicted to reach $6.2 trillion by 2028.
DIF: Cognitive Level: Remember

, b. Longer life spans
c. Chronic health conditions
d. High insurance premiums
e. Healthcare provider shortage
ANS: A, B, C, E
It is costing more to care for an increased number of chronically ill patients. This has placed a
strain on the healthcare system including healthcare burnout rates.
DIF: Cognitive Level: Understand
2. Futurist research focuses on what type of change? (Select all that apply.)
a. Existing
b. Systemic
c. Transformational
d. Incremental
ANS: B, C
Futurist research focuses on systemic and transformational change and provides an alternative
to a preferred future. Forecasters focus on existing trends and incremental changes.
