Registered Health Information Administrator (RHIA) — Question 41

DSMIV-TR is used most frequently in what type of healthcare setting?

Answer options

• A. behavioral health centers.
• B. ambulatory surgery centers.
• C. home health agencies.
• D. nursing homes.

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The DSMIV-TR is mainly used in behavioral health centers, as it is a manual for diagnosing mental disorders. The other options, such as ambulatory surgery centers, home health agencies, and nursing homes, do not primarily focus on mental health diagnosis and treatment, making them less relevant for the use of DSMIV-TR.
