Answer to Question 1

D
While patients can expect a certain degree of privacy surrounding medical records, patient charts may be accessed under specific circumstances by select agencies for accreditation reviews, reimbursement claims, and legal cases. The patient controls his or her privacy, and unless a documented release has been granted, a spouse would be denied access to information in the chart.

Answer to Question 2

C
Staphylococcus is a bacteria and is NOT an example of an ILD.
