Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
Health Level 7 is an international organization that develops and maintains standards for data exchange. The WHO, IHTSDO, and IMIA do not develop and maintain standards for data exchange.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
Key barriers to global interoperability include issues related to the terminologies used in describing and documenting healthcare such as cost and accessibility; gaps in exhaustiveness; and lack of granularity. The remaining options are all efforts to solve the problem.
