Assignment Overview & Instructions
Health information standards are paving the road to a better future for healthcare quality, cost, and equality. However, standards have been around for far longer than the modern healthcare system. In this assignment, participants will choose a standard of information exchange and discuss some key points with regards to what has been learned so far.
This assignment is worth 100 points total.
Step 1: Choose a Standard
Choose a data or information standard (terminologies are also acceptable), preferably one that you personally understand. It doesn’t have to be health-related and it doesn’t even have to be a digital format – What matters is that you like using the format yourself, whether for work or for fun!
If you need some ideas, below are some standards that have been written about in previous years. These are only suggestions, and you can pick an item that’s not on this list.
COVID-19 (SARS-CoV-2)-related terminology
If your choice isn’t on this list, and you’re not sure if your choice will work, please feel free to contact the instructor.
Step 2: Do the Research & Answer the Questions
Use at least 3 external valid resources that you find on your own (via Google, University Library, etc.) to explain the following (you can also use class readings on top of these if relevant):
Introduction: Define the standard and its source. Overall, why does this standard exist?
How did this standard come about? (Write up a brief history of it)
What are things that describe how this standard functions? Not all of these are applicable to all standards.If the standard is delivered as a digital file (e.g. MP3), aspects of the file format
Data elements; tags; markup
Hardware aspects
Semantic aspects of information
How does this standard help out in different levels of interoperability? (Not all of the below will apply – Most standards lean towards the bottom or the top)Compatibility
Syntactic
Semantic
Cross-Domain
What aspects of society has this standard changed (worsened or improved), and how?
All assertions need to be cited –Keep track of your sources at all times. A minimum of three (3) properly-written external citations – the textbook doesn’t count – are required.
Grading
Grading follows the IU SOIC scale, is out of 100 points, and is weighted as follows (Score for meeting basic requirements-Highest possible score):
Body sections (81-90 points)Introduction (9-10)
History (9-10)
How the standard functions (18-20)
Levels of interoperability (27-30)
Concluding remarks, including aspects of society changed (18-20)
Note: If grammar and syntax are at least comprehensible and sufficient information is conveyed, the maximum score is the “score for meeting basic requirements”. Superior grammar, syntax, and content can earn scores up to the “highest possible score”.
Citations (10 points) [Refer to APA guide below]3+ Inline APA citations done correctly (5)
3+ End APA citations done correctly (5)
Penalty (up to -3 points): Body length over 1000 words (excludes citations)
Overall: (91-100) points
Turnitin score should be lower than 30%
A score of 30% or more means that you need to work on your originality in phrasing and add quotation- and paraphrase-compatible citations (including page/paragraph #).
Students may be asked to revise or redo their paper if the score is 30% or higher.
Students with much higher scores (35% or higher) may receive zeros if originality is not presented or if most of the paper is cited and non-cited source materials.
Please note a secondary review is always done to ensure the Turnitin checker evaluated the submission correctly.

APA style in-text citation:
If an author’s name is available example:
According to Pate (2021), “Students were very inquisitive when learning about the various topics presented in medical terminology during weeks one and two” (p. 176).
If you chose to not include the author’s name in the citation example:
She stated, “Students were very inquisitive when learning about the various topics presented in medical terminology during weeks one and two” (Pate, 2021, p. 176), but she did not indicate the reasons why.
