Application of CIPP model for evaluating the medical records education course at master of science level at Iranian medical sciences universities

Abstract

The data attempting to determine the acceptability level of context, inputs, processes, and outputs of the Medical Records Education Course at Master of Science Level at four Iranian Medical Sciences Universities have been gathered through the questionnaires that were developed by the researcher based on the CIPP evaluation model. As a result of the research it is found that all areas of context, input, process, and output are placed in relatively acceptable category. The results of the study indicate that the continuous planning evaluation of medical records groups results in a better analysis of strong and weak points of the plans and improves their qualities level.
