    the ONC falls within what governmental department?

    HHS- department of health and human services

    What is the difference between the EMR and EHR

    "EMR= electronic record of health-related info that can be created, gathered, managed, and consulted by authorized clinicians within one healthcare organization
    EHR= electronic record of health-related info that conforms to nationally recognized interoperability standards that can be created, managed, and consulted by authorized clinicians across more than one healthcare organization"

    development of an EHR most often begins with acquisition of

    source systems

    source system -define

    systems that supply the EHR with data

    name the source systems

    administrative, financial, departmental (ancillary) systems

    why are financial/administrative systems not considered departmental systems

    they manage patient-specific data needed for all other applications and do not process data that aid in the management of the departments as departmental systems do

    list the financial/administrative systems

    R-ADT, PFS- patient financial systems, form creation systems

    what functions does a R-ADT do

    " for inpatient hospital:
    register pts for admisstion or outpt services (capturing demographic and insurance data and supplying this to all other applications as needed)
    opens an account for them
    tracks all transfers within the hospital
    closes the account when a pt is discharged"

    what is the physician's office equivalent o a R-ADT

    PMS- practice managemnt system or simply a scheduling system

    what is the function of the PFS(patient financial system)

    they aid RCM (revenue cycle management)- charge capture to collect info about services performed in departmental systems, claim generation for reimbursement, claims status inquiry and response- posting RA reflecting actual fees reimbursed and receiving electronic funds transfers

    RCM define

    revenue cycle all process relating to creating, submitting, analyzing, and obtaining payment for services given

    define business intelligence

    integration of financial and clinical data that supports business decisions

    what functions does a forms creation systems do

    automates some of the authorization, consent, advance directive, and other forms used. 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:
    pharmacist in checking for contraindications
    mixing drugs that require special preparation
    maintains inventory, staffing, and budgeting"

    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

    what was EDMS called at first?

    DIMS- document imaging management systems

    what is EDMS

    electronic document management systems-involve scanning documents to turn them into digital documents. Some include barcoding. This system can manage many types of documents including e-mails and faxes

    is EDMS part of an EHR?

    what does it mean to say that EDMS has workflow support?

    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

    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
    *has a central HUB
    *info is exchanged in a point-to-point manner
    *considered the least efficient and security is only as strong as the weakest link"

    describe the consolidated HIE model

    "*data is stored in one large database
    *data are NOT co-mingled, rather they are separated with access controls requiring specific authorization to gain access to any data
    *because data is in one place there is fear that large amounts of data could be used against the person if the wrong person accessed it"

    describe the consistent federated model

    "it's a hybrid model
    *has one large database and smaller vaults
    *data is centrally located but logically and physically separated"

    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

    what is identity management?

    it is NOT patient identification. It provides security including determinating who or what information system is authorized to access information, authentication services, audit logging, encryption, and transmission controls

    what is consent management?

    allows patients to opt in or opt out of having their data exchanged in the HIE

    what is does a NHIN (national health information network) do

    provides technology to support the national health information infrastructure

    criteria for earning MU incentives"

    define meaningful use

    criteria, set by ARRA/HITECH that providers must meet in order to qualify for incentives for using EHR

    describe the first part of MU-standards for MU of EHR?

    a certified EHR is connected in such a way that allows for the electronic exchange of health information that includes vocabulary standards to ensure consistent meaning.

    describe the second part of MU- certification that EHR tech meets standards criteria

    EHR has to be certified by an entity approved by the ONC an ONC authorized testing and certifying body

    What is CCHIT

    certification commission for ehalth information technology...it certifies HER

    are products certified by the authorized ONC entity complete EHR?

    they can be complete or they can be modular...modular components meet one or more but not all of MU requirements and so providers must combines modular products to have a complete system to meet incentive criteria

    does meeting the MU requirements mean that you have a complete EHR system?

    no...the requirements do not include all the core components for an EHR ...examples include BC-MAR, ambulatory practices are not required to have physician progress notes,

    describe the third part of MU-criteria for earning MU incentives

    identifies the extent to which the functions of the EHR must be used

    in order for hospitals or physicians to meet meaningful use their ERH technology must meet 3 things..what are they

    technology must be certified, interoperable, and used in a meaningful way

    who specified the criteria for the MU?

    CMS

    what is a patient portal?

    software that allows a patient to log on to a website from home or a kiosk in a providers waiting room to schedule appointments, pay bills, obtain educational material, sign informed consents, request ROI, or enter their own health history

    what is the CCR/CCD

    continuity of care documemt- provides content and format specifications for exchanging referral informaion between providers (ASTM and HL7 together made the CCD)

    who made the ccr?

    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?

    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. Stored data in plain text where each line of text holds one record with fields separated by delimiters (tabs/commas). There are no folders/paths in which to organize files

    what is a relational database

    stores data in predefined tables that contain rows and columns similar to a spreadsheet. Each talbe is a set of rows and columns that relate to one another

    CDR what is it

    Clinical Data Repository a special kind of relational database

    What does a CDR do?

    it manages data from all sources in a facility--helps to combine data from multiple source systems into one location for easier processing

    what is another name for a CDR?

    transactional databases

    what is a CDW

    clinical data warehouse. May be a relational database but more often it is a hierarchial or multi-dimensional database.

    what is the purpose of a CDW

    to support online analytical processing (OLAP)

    what is the difference between CDR and CDW?

    "CDR= uses structured and unstructured data. It is optimized for online transaction processing (OLTP) which is transactions relating to patient care. Is often included in EHR
    CDW= uses structured data only. Is optimiced for online analytical processing (OLAP) -data mining, compare measures, identify patterns. Is rarely a standard part of EHR"

    what does data storage refer to?

    the type of media, location, and length of time the contents of a database are kept

    define- data exchange standards/message format standards

    protocols/rules that help ensure data transmitted from one system to another remain comparable ex. 042187 will be recognized by both systems as the patient's record number NOT his birthday

    what is the difference between relational and hierarchial/multi-dimensional databases

    relational databases store each piece of data only once while hierarchial and multi-dimensional data may purposefully duplicate data

    HL7

    Health Level 7 - message format standards that aid in the exchange of health data among hospital and physician systems. Used by almost every EHR vendor in the US

    DICOM

    message format standard that helps exchange clinical images such as x-rays, CT scans and so on

    NCPDP

    message format standard that helps the exchange of prescriptions from a physician practice e-Rx system directly to the retail pharmacy information system

    ASC X12 is a message format standard for the health claims that professionals (physicians) send out to 3rd party payers

    define data comparability

    the meaning of a term is consistent across all users

    how is data comparability achieved?

    vocabulary standards

    what is the difference between message format and vocabulary standards

    message format standards are rules that ensure data transmitted from one system to another remain comparable while vocabulary standards ensure standardized meaning of terms

    define controlled vocabulary

    a specific set of terms for specified data is used and any changes must be formally approved......

    SNOMED what is it

    a vocabulary standard that was originally developed by American College of Pathologists...it is now freely available to US vendors as the basis for clinical data dictionaries in EHR systems.

    LOINC what is it

    vocabulary standard that is used for lab test results

    RxNorm what is it

    standardized nomenclature (vocabulary standard) for clinical drugs and drug delivery devices

    NDC what is it

    vocabulary standard for drug inventories in pharmacies

    architecture define

    refers to the configuration and relationships of all components of a computer system

    two main types of hardware infrastructure/architecture in an EHR

    "Client/server architecture-uses combination of computers to capture and process data...servers are powerful computers that house all application software that serve client computers
    web services architecture (WSA)-utilizes web-based tools to permit communication between different software applicaions..there is NOT the one-to-one relationship of a client/server"

    data center define

    area where servers are kept...the area needs special temperature, humidity and power controls

    server redundancy with server failover...what does this mean?

    at least two if not more servers are performing the same processing on data simultaneously. If one server goes down, processing is still occurring at another server....users are not interrupted

    define client

    computer that users use to retrieve and enter data

    define thick client

    information system with full processing capabilities

    thin client

    computer with minimal processing capability but no storage(memory)

    list and describe 3 human-computer interfaces (technologies that make data capture easier)

    "structured data entry via point-and-click, structured templates. These devices include the mouse, and touch screens
    natural language processing -the capability of a computer to convert narrative text to structured data
    direct data capture from a medical device attached to a patient-devices can be connected to a telephone line to capture data. useful for capturing vital signs or other monitoring data"

    migration path...define

    strategic plan that outlines the major components and the order in which they are to be implemented (EHR)

    what are factors that should be considered when planning EHR implementation?

    "*total cost of ownership/budget- cost of hardware/software, cost of consultants, construction, furniture
    *develop own implementation plan that take into account the vendors implementation plan
    *plan for chart conversion-how will we convert existing paper files to electronic form
    *data conversion- will we bring current electronic data into new system or keep in a legacy system
    *phase implementation-will we go live all at once or phase in sections at a time
    *issues management- how will we handle and keep track of problems that arrise during and after implementation
    *change management-support for workflow and other changes"

    list and describe data quality entry issues
