analysis process provides covered entities and business associates with the structural framework
up on which to bulid their securty plan

the information on the servers of the HIE participants. The pointers in a RLS can include a
person identification number and metadata. The RLS does NOT provide information about the
record, it merely points to where it might be found. Data are not stored in a centralized database
and records are only provided when queried.
Qualitative standards Correct Answer: specify the level of service from a function such as
accuracy rate, error rate, turnaround time and response time. In this case, timely response to
release of information requests can indirectly impact patient care. To properly communicate
performance standards, managers need to make the distinction between quantitative and
qualitative standards and identify examples of each for the health information systems functions.

tasks.
pie chart Correct Answer: a chart that shows the relationship of a part to a whole.
pie charts can be used to show the component parts of a single group or variable.
incidence rate Correct Answer: a computation that compares the number of new cases of a
specific disease for a given time period to the population at risk for the disease during the same
period.
a hospital is looking to cut cost on a vendors proposal for health IT should consider Correct
Answer: acquiring it's own hardware
Boolean Search Correct Answer: A Boolean operator is a computer-programming term for
