Answer to Question 1

1
Rationale: The informatics specialist is in a unique position to promote the integration of consumer informatics into the mainstream of health care delivery. With the increase in health care technology, the incorporation of a nurse informaticist specialist can help to provide patients and nurses the tools to understand the use of technology and promote the widespread adoption of consumer informatics.

Answer to Question 2

4
Rationale: The enterprise's legal and purchasing representatives may request the names of the three highest ranked vendors, as well as their RFP responses. In this way, the contract negotiations will be able to address issues not specifically included in the RFP responses, such as cost justification and expected implementation schedules. The end result will be the selection of one vendor and a system that will be implemented in the enterprise. Demands may include justifying their costs, guaranteeing the implementation schedules, or a specific quick response time for addressing problems.
