Captures e-signature, provides info to pt, and supplies a copy of the signed form to the pt what is the funciton of departmental/ancillary systems primarily to manage the department while at the same time prividing key clinical data for the EHR What are the 3 main departmental/ancillary systems necessary for an EHR to function in a hospital LIS (laboratory),RIS (radiology), pharmacy info sys what is the function of a LIS collects, stores, and manages lab tests and their results. It also performs quality control, maintains an inventory of equipment and supplies, and manages info on departmental staffing/costs.Speeds up access to test results. is blood-banking and clinical pathology part of the LIS no what is the function of a RIS collects, stores, and provides info on radiological tests. After receiving order it schedules the procedure, notifies the pt/personnel how to prep for the procedure, tracks procedure's performance, performs quality control, maintains inventory of equpment/ supplies, and manages staffing/costs what is the functions of a pharmacy info sys "info sys that aids: does the HIM department have its own information system? no..they manage some financial, admin, and support applications what are systems that HIM use that are not addressed by the EHR and so will remain chart deviciency sys, RIO sys, coding/abstracting sys what are the 5 main components/applications of an EHR results management; clinical documentaiton; closed-loop medication management; clinical decision support; analytics and reporting does meaningful use include E-MAR, barcode medication administration record, or support for E/M coding? no does meaningful use include CPOE yes what is the difference between results retrieval and results management systems results retrieval systems only allow results to be viewed and/or printed while results management systems allow the user to compare, trend, graph the results how must data be stored if the results management application is to be used data must be stored in a structured form and ideally stored together in one data repository define results management application that enables diagnostic study results (primarily lab) to be both reviewed in a report format and allows the user to process (trend,share, graph, compare) the data within the reports. what is another name for clinical documentation applications? point-of-care charting is a nursing information system considered a clinical documentation system? no it is considered a departmental system..similar to LIS or RIS because it manages the nursing department including staffing, training, budgeting and other managerial functions define clinical documentaiton system those applications that supply templates to the user to direct documentation that needs to be recorded for the patient to be completed primarily via point-and-click, drop-down, type-ahead, and other data-entry tools and that also provides a way to supply CDS at the time when the clinician is most responsive to alerts/reminders Is CPOE part of clinical documentation system? no..its considere part of the medication management system (pg 961) define closed-loop medication management system applications that help assure patient safety from the point a drug is ordered to the point it is administered what applications are considered part of closed-loop medication management systems CPOE, e-prescribing (e-Rx..which is a special type of CPOE), electronic medication administration record (E-MAR), or barcode medication administration record (BC-MAR), medication reconciliation systems, and automated drug dispensing machines......as well as policies/procedures and workflows associated with ensuring proper drug ordering, dispensing, administering, and monitoring of reactions. what is CPOE used for? used for entering ALL orders..not just medication orders (orders for pt admission, lab tests, consults, referrals, discharge of pt and medication orders) define alert fatigue providers ignoring alerts when there are an excessive number of them define unintended consequence and give an example unanticipated and undesired effect of implementing and using an EHR . A physician accepting a standard order when his patient's needs require something different and a bad result happens Which system generates a patient's medication list? CPOE What are some problems with CPOE use? physicians feel they now have to perform clerical duties and so don't use CPOE, alert fatigue, unintended consequences due to the CPOE being based on standard order sets what is e-Rx special type of CPOE used exclusively to make a prescription and transmit it electronically to RETAIL pharmacies what is included in the e-Rx medication alerts/reminders (like CPOE) formulary information that identifies whether the patient's health plan covers the cost of the drug and what co-pay may be required (unlike CPOE) what is a BC-MAR system that requires the hospital to have each patient identified with a barcode (wristband) and to package drugs in unit dose form , each with a barcode or radio-frequency identification tag that identifies the drug, dose, and route. When the nurse logs onto the BC-MAR system and scans the pt's wristband and unit dose pkg the system automatically time and date-stamps the entry made does the BC-MAR system provide CDS yes..provides links to info about drugs does the BC-Mar system generate reports? yes...on the timely administration of drugs..also has ability for nurse to write notes to describe exceptions what are some issues with the BC-MAR system somme specially compounded drugs administered IV require special labels which not all hospitals pharmacy information systems can accommodate..requiring data to be entered manually into the system; you have to bring the computer, barcode wand, and medication to the patient...this can be done via wireless workstation-on -wheels (WOW..which is heavy to push) or carrying a sling with a tablet and wand; the hospital needs to define what constitutes a medication error...a wrong time may not be due to error...the pt may have been unavailable during the administration time what application sets an EHR apart from simply automating paper documents CDS What does Clinical decision support do helps providers make decisions about patient care examples of Clinical decision support alerts about drug contraindications and out of range lab results and standard order sets in CPOE, templates that help determine what documentation is required, suggest less expensive but equally effective drugs and alternate treatments/protocols is the Clinical decision support built into the core applications of an EHR or is it a separate system? both. CDS found in core EHR applications if rudimentary, more sophisticated CDS requires the integration of data from the other EHR components...these require separate applications why would you need a separate clinical decision support system to provide information about drug-lab checking? because it is not a routine function of the CPOE (drug) or LIS (Lab) but requires the combination of the data from both sources and the ability to dliver the alert back to the correct system. what are some examples of separate CDSS that are integrated into the EHR templates used in clinical documentation, standard order sets used in CPOE, clinical pathways for nurses what is an example of a CDSS used in a stand-alone fashion by physicians differential diagnosis system...compares images or data against a library of images or data to help in diagnosing a condition what is an example of a CDSS used in a stand-alone fashion by a hospital system to alert infection control nurses of a potential hospital-acquired infection... why are many physicians adverse to use CDSS? because it requires data to be entered in a structured fashion and physicians don't usually like that--its a workflow issue what does analytics and reporting applications refer to? the statistical processing of data to reveal NEW information...such as which form of treatment for a specific condition had the best outcomes why is the ability of the analytics and reporting application to produce reports important? they are used to improve quality and reduce healthcare costs(find more efficient ways of doing things) what functions do analytics involve? data mining, forcasting, and neural networks( mathematical modeling that makes connections between data to discover relationships) who uses analytics? academic and research institutions, health plans, pharmaceutical manufacturers, and public health departments analytics is used to create XXXXX XXXXX , such as predicting prescribing paterns of physicians, or the impact of a disaster on local emergency services business intelligence what part of an HER does not support analytics and reporting the nature of the database required for POC charting and CDS...it is often necessary to data from an HER system to a separate database that is optimized to perform analytics and reporting what is analytics used for? quality improvement, quality reporting (core measures PQRI), used by insurance companies to decide whether to grant facilities favorable discount rates on fees, consumers use analytics to decide which facility to have procedures done at (success rates of procedures), research for new/better outcomes for procedures/medications, can also be used to generate a patient follow-up list what is a specialty system system that supports documentation of patient care in specialty areas such as ICU, ED, respiratory therapy, rehab, behavioral and hospice care what is a type of speciality information system PACS- picture archival and communication system-captures digital images and provides special viewing capabilities of these images from a computer

EDMS will send notifications out when certain jobs need to be done at the correct time what is electronic signature authentication systems that requires the user to log into the system using a password and user ID, review the document to be signed, and indicate approval...the system annotates the date and time that the document has been signed define implementation system has been installed and configured but the staff are still experimenting with it/learning how to use it and the new workflows define adoption a state in which every intended user of the EHR is using the basic functions of the system define optimization activities that extend the use of the EHR beyond the basic functions....usually involves changes in clinical practice define clinical transformation profound change in how medicine is practiced due to significant changes in technology what are some challenges that must be over come for EHR adoption cost, questions about their true benefits, workflow changes, productivity impact, and unintended consequences define cloud computing delivery of computing resources (software) over a network and sold as a metered service..much like buying electricity why do some facilities prefer cloud computing for an EHR it lowers the cost...although customization is not possible at the lower cost can facilities expect much financial return for installing/using an EHR? no..they consider it a cost of doing business...the only area where hospitals see cost savings/return on investment is in administrative areas....storage of paper charts/warehouse costs are reduced, number temporary and overtime hours is reduced (to manage paper records) how is productivity affected by an EHR? productivity falls while people get used to the new system but after optimization productivity is elevated over past performance what is the purpose of the Safeguarding Access for Every Medicare Patient Act (SAFE Medicare Patient Act) give legal protection to medicare/medicaid providers who participate in the MU incentive program to help ensure patient safety due to unintended consequences. It would also create a system for reporting errors and potential errors that occur when using the EHR or HIE define HIE plan in which health information is shared among providers describe the function of an HIO manages patient identity, record location and security --including consent directives where patients opt in or opt out of having their data exchanged through the HIO list the types of HIE (HIEO) models federated, consistent federated, consolidated (centralized) describe the federated HIE model "*no central location of data describe the consolidated HIE model "*data is stored in one large database describe the consistent federated model "it's a hybrid model HITECH deemed the HIO as a ____ ____under HIPAA. business associate True /False the HIO requires all participants to sign a participation agreement that spells out the policies and procedures for exchanging information TRUE what is an identity matching algorithm? a way to match a patient with their data in an HIO what is voluntary universal health identifier unique patient identifier what are critical services an HIO must supply patient identification (identify matching algorithm), record locator service, identity management, consent management what is a record locator service? locates alll patient medical records for one person what is identity management? it is NOT patient identification.

ASTM international what was combined to make the CCD? ASTM's CCR along with HL7's CDA(clinical document architecture) What is HL7's CDA? an XML-based standard that provides structure (description of document content for users), vocabulary standards (SMOMED and LOINC), and codes for sharing clinical documents how may the CCD be transmitted? HL7 standard messages, email attachments, or standard internet file protocol (FTP) define DBMS database management systems are software applications that organize, provide access to, and manage a database what is a flat file earliest form of a database.
