Abstracting Questionnaire

Page One

Greetings!

I am currently working on my senior capstone project in my major at Pitt, Health Information Management, and was wondering if you could take a moment out of your day to answer this short questionnaire. Your responses will provide me guidance on the current face of healthcare and what we can work towards in the future in the field of Health Information Management.

Thank you for your time!
