Like all components, EIFs are rated and scored. The rating is based upon the number of data elements (DETs) and the record types (RETs). DETs and RETs were discussed earlier in this section. The table below lists both the level (low, average or high) and appropriate score (5, 7 or 10).
| Record Element Types (RET) | Data Elements | ||
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 to 19 | 20 - 50 | 51 or More | |
| 1 | Low (5) | Low (5) | Average (7) |
| 2 to 5 | Low (5) | Average (7) | High (10) |
| 6 or More | Average (7) | High (10) | High (10) |
