Unit Review (Quality Control)
Here is what we have learned from this unit:
- Quality control procedures must be implemented to ensure
complete reporting of all reportable cases.
- The quality control function should be performed semiannually
at a minimum to allow for immediate correction of identified
under-reported areas.
- If the number of reportable cases in the database has
dropped by midyear, the registrar should verify that all
sources of casefinding have been reviewed.
- Other examples of quality control procedures for casefinding
include comparing monthly cases in previous years with the
current period.
- On a hospital and regional level, comparison of sites
by the year of diagnosis can be helpful.
- On a regional and state level, comparison of facilities
by year could identify increases or decreases in cases.
Quiz
To test how much you have learned from this unit, a true-false
quiz, including four questions, has been created to give you
an opportunity to reinforce what you have learned.
Since the quiz is created as an incentive for learning, rather
than an objective evaluation of learning results, the score
of the quiz will not be captured and will not be recorded.
Feedback to your answer is provided instantaneously.
These quiz questions are grouped into two sets of two questions
each to reduce the size of the content on each page. When
you finish the questions in one set, click the navigation
arrows in the Title Bar to go to the next page. Please click
