Question

3. State the role of the p value in the results section of research studies using the scenario "Data Findings 1" as your data reference.

Data Findings 1:

Recently a privately held company scheduled a meeting with your facilities primary care physicians. The company conducted a research study to demonstrate their proprietary clinical decision support tool’s efficacy in assisting in medication therapy management. The company research results demonstrated that the proprietary clinical decision support tool reduced hospital readmissions by 52% (p= 0.007) and the Emergency Department Visits by 42% (p= 0.0045) in patients over the age of 50 taking multiple medications when combined with pharmacogenetics testing. Should your facilities primary care physicians adopt the tool?

4. Construct a pie graph showing the percentages for coding productivity among coders using Table 3A for your data. Your written response should include an analysis of the data and a conclusion of any action that would need to be taken.

Data Table 3A

Coding Productivity
Coder	Number of Charts Coded Per Day	Percentage of Charges Per Day
1	17	15.18%
2	27	24.11%
3	14	12.5%
4	21	18.75%
5	33	29.46%

Answer 1

3, primary physician will adopt this tool because this tool helps managing medication therapy, reduce department high risk, prescription errors, it reduces hospital readmission and ED visit etc..

4, pie graph coder productivity helps increase the efficiency of HIM department..some extra task and regulatory changes effects coder productivity, inadequate coders, amount of time taken for coding each file will lower the coder productivity..

Coding productivity needs to be re- established to include expectations, query process and abstracting function..
