Thanks very much for this post! I've been keen for you to tell us about
your work for a while, since you have more experience in successfully
deploying mobile health systems than most organizations, and we have a lot
to learn from you. As usual, i have a few questions--but no need to
answer them all.
What changed in 2008? If I understand correctly, you are saying that in
2008 the software developers started working more closely on data quality,
and building in automated systems.
Do you have a sense of which of the methods you described are most
effective? If an organization was going to just implement two, which two
would you suggest they start with?
Many of your methods are meant to detect field workers who are entering
false data either intentionally or through human error. In general, once
you identify such cases, does a field worker tend to start entering higher
quality data? Or do you often need to hire new field workers?
For the capture-recapture methods, what level of discrepancy triggers follow
up? If the answers are 10% different between the initial and followup
sessions, is that good or is that a cause for further investigation?
I'm curious to hear more about the fieldworkers breaching your quality
control team's efforts. Does that mean that the field workers are
deliberating finding ways to enter false data but not get caught by your
quality control methods? Is it possible to breach capture-recapture?
Finally, do you have to have quality control methods to monitor the quality
control teams themselves?
thanks again!
