Basic Tools for Quality Improvement in Health Care Informatics
2020 by Jerome Niyiora, SUNY Polytechnic Institute.
Introduces students to the essential tools of quality improvement. The emphasis is placed on health care informatics, as reflected in the several examples contained in the text. The book is written to be accessible to any student in the areas of health information management, health care informatics, and health care industrial engineering. Although having some statistical background would be a plus, such knowledge is not a prerequisite to understanding and applying the tools presented here. Several How-To sections are included to demonstrate the hands-on implementation of the dis-cussed concepts using software such as Minitab, Visio, and Excel.
