Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 3

When the study is conducted so that even the investigator cannot link a specific person to information, the study is said to be anonymous. Confidentiality means that any information collected in the study will not be made public or available without the person's consent. Aggregation is grouping of data. Privacy is an overarching concept that includes both confidentiality and anonymity.

Answer to Question 2

Correct Answer: 1

Report cards typically include selected quality indicators or measures developed and endorsed broadly by agencies such as the NQF, AHRQ, and CMS. Data are organized and presented based on disease conditions, procedures, quality and safety, nurse staffing, patient satisfaction, and costs of services. Consumers can determine how often the recommended treatments were provided for patients admitted to a specific facility. KSA behaviors and QSEN competencies address quality and safety education for nursing students. Health care claims would not necessarily address quality information.
