A surrogate or natural key that uniquely identifies a specific structured clinical questionnaire within a healthcare data system. Used to link questionnaire responses, scoring results, and metadata across clinical, claims, and care management platforms.

The spoken or written language in which a clinical questionnaire is administered to a patient or member. Used in care management and patient engagement systems to ensure health assessments are delivered in the respondent's preferred language, supporting health equity requirements.

The family surname of the individual respondent associated with a completed clinical questionnaire. Used in patient-facing health assessments and care management workflows to identify and match questionnaire submissions to the correct member or patient record.

The official registered full name of the individual respondent as it appears on government-issued identification, associated with a completed clinical questionnaire. Used in health plan enrollment, care management, and clinical assessment workflows for identity verification.

A numeric or coded value indicating the hierarchy position of a questionnaire within a multi-tiered clinical assessment framework. Determines whether the questionnaire represents an initial screening, secondary evaluation, or detailed clinical intake within a structured care program.

The professional license identifier of the clinician or administrator who authored, approved, or administered a clinical questionnaire. Used in regulatory compliance and credentialing workflows to associate structured assessments with a licensed healthcare professional.

The marital or domestic partnership status of the patient or member respondent at the time a clinical questionnaire was completed. Captured in health risk assessments and social determinants of health screenings to support whole-person care planning.

The enterprise-level master identifier that uniquely links a clinical questionnaire to a patient or member record across all systems within a healthcare organization. Used in master patient index matching to ensure consistent identification across clinical, claims, and care management platforms.

The upper boundary value defined for a scored or ranged response field within a clinical questionnaire. Used in health risk assessments and clinical scoring tools to validate responses, trigger alerts, and calculate composite scores such as PHQ-9 or HRA risk ratings.

The facility-assigned medical record number of the patient linked to a completed clinical questionnaire. Used to associate structured assessment responses with the correct patient record in EHR and clinical data warehouse environments for longitudinal care tracking.

The middle name or initial of the individual respondent associated with a clinical questionnaire submission. Used in patient identity matching workflows within health assessments and care management systems to disambiguate records with similar first and last names.

The lower boundary value defined for a scored or ranged response field within a clinical questionnaire. Used in health risk assessments and clinical scoring tools to validate response inputs, enforce data quality rules, and calculate composite clinical risk scores.

The mobile phone number of the patient or member respondent associated with a clinical questionnaire. Used in care management and outreach workflows to support SMS-based questionnaire delivery, appointment reminders, and follow-up communications tied to health assessment results.

The system username or user identifier of the individual who last updated a clinical questionnaire record. Used in audit trail and data governance workflows to maintain accountability for changes made to structured assessment content, scoring rules, or patient responses.

The calendar date on which a clinical questionnaire record was last updated in the healthcare data system. Used in data governance, audit logging, and longitudinal care tracking to identify when changes to questionnaire content, scoring, or patient responses were made.

The timestamp indicating the exact time a clinical questionnaire record was last updated in the healthcare data system. Used alongside the modified date in audit trail and data lineage workflows to provide a precise record of when questionnaire data was altered or resubmitted.

The human-readable display label assigned to a clinical questionnaire, such as PHQ-9 Depression Screener or Annual Health Risk Assessment. Used in care management platforms, clinical portals, and reporting systems to identify and present structured assessments to clinicians and administrators.

A system-assigned or externally defined numeric reference that uniquely identifies a clinical questionnaire instance or form version. Used in clinical data management and care management workflows to track, retrieve, and report on specific questionnaire submissions or assessment versions.

The date on which the patient or member first reported symptoms or conditions that prompted initiation of a structured clinical questionnaire. Captured in disease management and care coordination workflows to establish the timeline of symptom onset relative to assessment and intervention activities.

Records the peripheral oxygen saturation (SpO2) percentage captured within a clinical questionnaire, typically collected via pulse oximetry during patient assessments, triage screenings, or chronic disease monitoring workflows to evaluate respiratory and cardiovascular status.
