Answer to Question 1

A
Functional rsums highlight skills and experience gained rather the details of specific positions. As with rsums in general, skills and experiences are customized to create an image of an indi-vidual in a particular position.

Answer to Question 2

D
The NQF and CMS define never events as errors in medical care that are clearly identifiable, preventable, and serious in their consequences for patients and that indicate a real problem in the safety and credibility of a healthcare facility. Examples of never events include surgery on the wrong body part, foreign body left in a patient after surgery, mismatched blood transfusion, ma-jor medication error, severe pressure ulcer acquired in the hospital, and preventable postoperative deaths.
