The first text of its kind, Statistical Applications for Health Information Management is devoted exclusively to the application of statistical techniques to the field of health information management. The author draws on her first-hand experience to demonstrate how frequency measures, as well as descriptive and inferential statistics, are being used to analyze clinical/administrative health care data today. Contains plenty of examples illustrating statistical procedures, how to use SPSS, and Excel; a single case study exemplifies the processes; emphasis on computer applications in current use, with minimal coverage of manual applications; each chapter ends with a summary to reinforce the material, as well as chapter exercises; "Acronyms and Terms" appendix defines the terms used in the book; appendixes supply commonly-used information.
