Registered Health Information Administrator (RHIA) — Question 125

As a trauma registrar working in an emergency department, you want to begin comparing your trauma care services to other hospital-based emergency departments. To ensure that your facility is collecting the same data as other facilities, you review elements from which data set?

Answer options

• A. DEEDS.
• B. UHDDS.
• C. MDS.
• D. ORYX.

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A, DEEDS, as it specifically focuses on data related to emergency department services and trauma care, allowing for meaningful comparisons. The other options, while relevant to healthcare data collection, do not specifically target the emergency department's trauma data, making them less suitable for this purpose.
