What is a Health Questionnaire? 

A health questionnaire is a quantitative method of collecting information about a person’s health status. It is typically used by doctors or other health practitioners to gather important data about someone’s health and well-being. This data allows the healthcare provider to know how far the patient has come and to develop an accurate treatment plan based on this information. 

A health questionnaire contains different close-ended and open-ended questions pertaining to the context of the research. In some cases, health questionnaires are for administrative use such as booking clinical appointments and conducting patient satisfaction surveys.
