Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
The Healthcare Information Management Systems Society (HIMSS) provides a definition of the EHR as a longitudinal electronic record of patient health information produced by encounters in one or more care settings. Every person will have a birth to death (and even postmortem) record of health-related information in electronic form from multiple sources, such as physician office visits, inpatient and outpatient hospital encounters, medications, allergies, and multiple other medical services to support care. All other answers refer to a single facility use, which is not the EHR but a potential component of the EHR.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
Nodes are individuals, and lines are connections. The size of the line is often the number of interactions between individuals, and the size of the node is the number of interactions with that unit.
