What is included in the clinical data of a patient's medical record?

The clinical data of a patient's medical record encompasses all the essential information related to the patient's medical history and treatment. This includes details such as medications prescribed, treatments received, laboratory test results, diagnosis, and any other information that directly pertains to the patient's health care. This type of data is critical for healthcare providers in making informed decisions about ongoing and future care for the patient.

Billing information, social media interactions, and general health trends in the population do not fit within the scope of clinical data. Billing information relates to financial aspects rather than clinical details, social media interactions do not provide clinically relevant insights, and general health trends pertain to population health rather than individual patient data.
