Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Record usage rate is calculated by dividing the number of record requests by the total number of records maintained and multiplying by 100 to get a percentage.

Record usage rate = (number of record requests / total number of records maintained) x 100

In this case, the record usage rate would be:

(5000 / 500000) x 100 = 1%

Therefore, the correct answer is B) 1%.

The HIM Department Maintains 5000,000 Records and Responds to 5,000
