Answer to Question 1

Answer: B

Nursing informatics is the science of using computers in nursing practice to improve client care by making client information easily accessible. Documenting client information by computer does not necessarily reduce charting time, depending on the system used. The client's information is protected by privacy laws. The client may read the chart, whether written or computerized, in the presence of a physician.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: D

Many people in the United States do not have healthcare insurance. As a result, they seek routine health care in the emergency department, contributing to the increase in the cost of health care. Use of alternative medicine does not increase healthcare costs. Chronic disease is on the rise. There are many technological advances in medicine, and they have increased the cost of health care.
