Answer to Question 1

Ans: D
The final step in the UNC rubric is to Assess the change using the quality
improvement process in place in the institution.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: B
Concerns about privacy become magnified when information is available to many
people in many sites far removed from where the patient is located, a situation that exists when
computerized records are used. This is usually considered a more important concern than issues
of compliance, compatibility, or vulnerability to errors.
