Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
Bar code medication administration (BCMA) is a method used to address patient safety and reduce errors that occur during the actual administration of medicines. CPOE is used to decrease transcription errors during the ordering process. ePrescribing is also used by the physician to order the medication (not administer). The eMAR is used to document the medications that are given.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
Stage 1 includes the installation of ancillaries (lab, radiology, pharmacy). Stage 2 includes clinical data repository (CDR), controlled medical vocabulary, and clinical decision support system (CDSS) and may also include document imaging and health information exchange. Stage 3 would require clinical documentation (flow sheets), CDSS (error checking), and a picture archiving system (PACS) available outside radiology.
