Answer to Question 1

ANS: B, C, D
CDS is important on multiple levels. CDS has been found to reduce medical errors, is required as part of Meaningful Use, and has the potential to improve the value of care. CDS have not been found to reduce the need for registered nurses.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B, C
There has been a lot of attention and promise on diagnostic decision support systems, including trials showing how they could outperform clinician experts. However, as discussed in other sections of the chapter, systems that are misaligned with the clinician's workflow and limited financial incentives are reasons for limited use of diagnostic CDS systems. Diagnostic CDS can be comparable to human experts when used appropriately. Also, these systems have not been found to be detrimental to patient care.
