Answer to Question 1

Answer: A, B, C, E

Clinical decision support systems are designed to give healthcare providers tools to supplement the decision-making process during and after client care. These tools can include diagnostic support, documentation templates, clinical guidelines, alerts and reminders, condition-specific order sets, reference information, and focused data reports. Budgeting spreadsheets are not included.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: D

Human resource departments can benefit from computerization by tracking personnel within the healthcare system. Professional licenses and credentials expire and must be renewed. It would be a daunting task to keep track of this information manually for a large facility that employs thousands of healthcare professionals. A computerized system can monitor license expiration and when recredentialing of a provider is required. Coding and charging for resources would be used by the billing department. Information about client discharges according to identified lengths of stay would be used in a utilization review.
