Answer to Question 1

C

Answer to Question 2

The EMR belongs to one health care institution, such as a doctor's office or hospital, and it must be interoperable (able to communicate and share information with the other computers and information systems) within that institution only. Ideally, the EHR is not the property of any one institution or practitioner. Eventually, it must be interoperable both nationally and internationally. The EHR is the property of the patient, who can access the record and add information. It must include information from all the health care providers and institutions that give care to the patient. Thus, the EHR eases communication among many practitioners and institutions. It is also a source for research in clinical areas, health services, patient outcomes, and public health as well as an educational source.
