and the outcome of each subject is independent of the others."

Case Mix Index (CMI) - Answer✔✔-"The average relative weight of all cases treated

at a given facility or by a given physician, which reflects the resource intensity or clinical

severity of a specific group in relation to the other groups in the classification system;

calculated by dividing the sum of the weights of diagnosis-related groups for patients

discharged during a given period by the total number of patients discharged."

Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) - Answer✔✔-"The division of the

Department of Health and Human Services that is responsible for developing healthcare

policy in the United States, for administering the Medicare program and the federal

association between the two variables. Represented by the symbol X2 (where X is the

Greek letter chi.)

Cluster random sampling - Answer✔✔-"The population is divided into groups before

the sample is selected. The groups or clusters must be mutually exclusive and

exhaustive. (That is, every unit in the population is assigned to one and only one

cluster.) Clusters are then randomly selected to make up the sample. Cluster sampling

clusters); groups are then randomly selected to form sample

private insurers for professional services provided 2. A Medicare claim form used to bill

third-party payers for provider services, for example, physician office visits."

Coefficient of determination - Answer✔✔-"A statistic that measures the amount of

variance in a dependent variable explained by one or more independent variables. If

there is one independent variable, then this value is the Pearson Correlation Coefficient

squared."

Confidence interval - Answer✔✔-An interval that is centered at the sample estimate

of a population value that may be calculated so that it has a preset probability of

containing the population value.

Confidence level - Answer✔✔-The probability that a confidence interval includes the

true value of a population statistic.

Contingency tables - Answer✔✔-A useful method for displaying the relationship

between two categorical variables. Each category is displayed as rows or columns. The

cells in the table represent the count of subjects with each category attribute.
