Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
Exemplars of the health informatics concept include clinical health care informatics, clinical research informatics, public/population health informatics, and translational bioinformatics. Hardware and software, privacy and security, and standardized information systems and terminology are considered attributes related to the concept, not exemplars.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
They would show the subscribers how their money was being spent, what amount of good was really being done with it, or whether the money was not doing mischief rather than good (Florence Nightingale, 1863). Although health information and informatics could fulfill the other purposes, none of these were the focus of Florence Nightingales published purposes of her requests for hospital information.
