Data quality (DQ) is the degree to which a given dataset meets a user's requirements. In the primary healthcare setting, poor quality data can lead to poor patient care, negatively affect the validity and reproducibility of research results and limit the value that such data may have for public health surveillance. [4]
Data quality refers to the state of qualitative or quantitative pieces of information. There are many definitions of data quality, but data is generally considered high quality if it is "fit for [its] intended uses in operations, decision making and planning".
Clinical data standards are used to store and communicate information related to healthcare so that its meaning is unambiguous. They are used in clinical practice, in activity analysis and finding, and in research and development. There are many existing and proposed standards and many bodies working in this field.

The mission of the journal is to identify both emerging and established areas of biomedical data science, and the leaders in these fields.” [7] Other journals have a more general scope than biomedical data science, but regularly publish biomedical data science research such as Health Data Science [8] and Nature Machine Intelligence.

ODM is a vendor-neutral, platform-independent format for interchange and archive of clinical study data. The model includes the clinical data along with its associated metadata, administrative data, reference data and audit information. [8] ODM was first introduced in 1999, and the latest version, 1.3.2, was released in 2012. [9]
Clinical peer review should be distinguished from the peer review that medical journals use to evaluate the merits of a scientific manuscript, from the peer review process used to evaluate health care research grant applications, and, also, from the process by which clinical teaching might be evaluated.
In some studies, attainment of HEDIS measures is associated with cost-effective practices or with better health outcomes. In a 2002 study, HEDIS measures "generally reflect[ed] cost-effective practices". [11] A 2003 study of Medicare managed care plans determined that plan-level health outcomes were associated with HEDIS measures. [12]
