Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
A closed-loop medication management system would connect the pharmacy system to the CPOE, eMAR, and bar-coding systems.

Some examples of specialty department niche systems include perioperative or surgical services, maternity care, neonatal intensive care, and the emergency department. The LIS is an ancillary system. CPOE and CDSS are basic components of the EHR.
