Answer to Question 1

D
Knowledge technology consists of systems that generate or process knowledge and provide clin-ical decision support (CDS). The clinical knowledge embedded in computer applications can range from simple facts and relationships to best practices for managing patients with specific disease states, new medical knowledge from clinical research, and other types of information. The most accessible and cost-effective approach would be utilization of what is already available in the work environment, such as the systems that provide CDS.
