Answer to Question 1

Quaternary care is considered an extension of tertiary care and includes advanced levels of medicine that are highly specialized, not widely used, and very costly. It can include types of experimental medicine.

Answer to Question 2

Records are retrieved for inpatient readmission (for nursing units), scheduled and unscheduled outpatient clinic visits (for clinics such as dermatology, orthopedics, and so on), authorized quality management studies, and education and research.
