Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
Implementing a secure Internet connection using components of the Nationwide Health Information Network (NwHIN) is a method for exchanging data endorsed by the federal government. The other methods listed are not considered safe and confidential, and the federal government does endorse health information sharing.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
In order to improve CDS rules, you would store rules in a knowledge base and allow clinician experts to review and update the rules. The other choices do not address patient specificity; allowing experts to update rules and make the rules immediately available to the CDS can improve patient specificity.
