WGU 220 All Solutions Complete 2023
American Recover and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) Ans- Authorized INCENTIVE PAYMENTS to specific types
of hospitals and healthcare professionals for adopting and using interoperable Health Information
Technology and EHR's. ARRA provides economic stimuli and incentives for the adoption of EHRs.
Admission-Transfer-Discharge (ADT) System Ans- Classified under the hospitals' administrative info
system. It's one of the foundational systems that allows operational activities such as bed placement,
transportation coordination, room readiness, and the general coordination of services focused on the
patient's phase of movement. Tracks a patient's activities and location from admission to discharge.
Analytical Science Ans- Uses a variety of methods and instruments to answer 2 basic questions: What do
I have? How much of it do I have? Environment, pharmacy, safety & security, fraud detection, and
healthcare diagnostics.
Asynchronous Applications Ans- Patient-centered and allows consumers to participate in their own care
by using designated health technology to share health metrics and data with their healthcare provider
via technology (remote patient-monitoring - the use of devices to capture patient data at one location
and then transmit it electronically to healthcare professionals at a different location, allowing the review
of data for clinical decision-making, i.e. MobileHealth).
Audit Trails Ans- Software that is used for detecting security violations, performance problems, and
flaws. Records activity by users and system. Goal is to improve data integrity. Audit trails are only one of
the ways to ensure data integrity. An audit trail must contain the name of the user, the application
triggering the audit, the workstation, the specific document, a description of the event being audited,
and the date and time to determine the integrity of data.
Authentication Ans- Action that verifies the authority of users to receive specified data.
Barcode Medication Administration Ans- MANDATED BY FDA
Benchmark Ans- The continual process of measuring services and practices against the toughest
competitors in the healthcare industry. Comparing the performance of an organization or clinician to
others.
,Big Data Ans- Very large data sets that are beyond human capability to analyze or manage without the
aid of information technology. Big data is considered data originating from very large data sets that help
identify patterns and trends. Big data cannot be managed without the use of technology to analyze its
output.
Clinical Decision Support System (CDSS) Ans- Supports healthcare practitioners in making patient-care
decisions by integrating patient data with current clinical knowledge. CDSS is technology that provides
recommendations for care and must be balanced with professional judgment, not used in place of it.
Clinical Information System Ans- Software used to access client data, plan, implement, and evaluate
care. May be specific to certain departments: lab, radiology, pharmacy, or particular patient
populations. Provides patient centric decision-making functionality to help guide a nurse with decision-
making while caring for a patient. Acquires patient data so that healthcare professionals can review it
and use the information to deliver care.
Computer Literacy Ans- Familiarity with the use of personal computers. Computer literacy is defined as
the knowledge and ability to use computers and technology efficiently. Computer literacy allows
patients to interact with the internet.
Computerized Provider Order Entry (CPOE) Ans- The prescriber's decisions to enter orders and
immediately share the orders with appropriate health professionals who execute the orders and
departments that need to dispense, schedule, or immediately deliver services to patients.
Confidentiality Ans- Unspoken understanding that private information shared in a situation, in which a
relationship has been established for the purpose of treatment or delivery of services will remain
protected.
Configurability Ans- Refers to the extent that a given software product can be adapted or changed to
meet a user's preference.
Connected Health Ans- Model or platform by which technology assisted healthcare is delivered between
at least two points, involving either synchronous or asynchronous exchange.
Consolidated-Clinical Document Architecture (C-CDA) Ans- Allows interoperability of health information
exchange between hospital systems.
, Consumer Health Informatics (CHI) Ans- Use of electronic information and communication to improve
medical outcomes and health-care decision making from the patient/consumer perspective. Three
barriers include: Privacy issues, cognitive disabilities, low health literacy. Five examples: Personal Health
Records, Telehealth, Mobile Health, Games for Health, and Health 2.0. Telehealth is defined as
healthcare at a distance through the use of technology that connects the patient and the clinician in real
time.
Continuity of Care Record (CCD) Ans- Snapshot of a person's health and healthcare to a provider who
does not have access to the person's EHR.
Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature (CINAHL) Ans- Primary database used for
nursing literature.
Data Ans- Collection of numbers, characters, or facts that are gathered according to some perceived
need for analysis.
Data Analysis Ans- The processing of data that identify trends and patterns of relationships.
Data Information Knowledge Wisdom (DIKW) Framework Ans- Data are the most discrete components
of the DIKW framework. They are mostly presented as discrete observations with little interpretation.
Information is a continuum of progressively developing and clustered data. Relations and interactions
are not yet evident in information alone. Knowledge is information that is processed and organized so
that relations and interactions are identified. Wisdom is an appropriate use of knowledge to manage
and solve human problems. Wisdom includes ethics or knowing why certain things or procedures should
or should not be implemented in specific cases.
Data Integrity Ans- Ability to collect, store, and retrieve correct, complete, and current data so that the
data are available to authorized users when needed. Can be compromised by incorrect entry of
information, data tampering, and system failure. Prevention by implementing security measures and
audit trails. Data integrity is the state wherein data are uncorrupted, accurate, and valid.
Data Mining Ans- Technique that look for hidden patterns and relationships in large groups of data using
software.
