  1. Which data quality dimension refers to the completeness of required data elements in a healthcare record?

    Answer: Completeness

    Completeness measures whether all required data elements are present and populated within a healthcare record.

  2. A care coordination platform needs to alert a provider when a patient is admitted to any hospital in a network. Which FHIR mechanism is most appropriate?

    Answer: FHIR Subscriptions

    FHIR Subscriptions allow a server to push notifications to registered clients when specified resources are created or changed.

  3. In HL7 V2 messaging, which segment contains patient identification information such as name, date of birth, and medical record number?

    Answer: PID

    The PID (Patient Identification) segment in HL7 V2 carries demographic data including patient name, date of birth, gender, and identifiers.

  4. A hospital is migrating its EHR and needs to convert legacy SNOMED CT codes to ICD-10-CM for a new billing system. What type of artifact facilitates this?

    Answer: A cross-map or concept map

    Cross-maps (or concept maps) provide systematic mappings between different code systems, enabling translation of coded data during migrations or integrations.

  5. Which ONC certification criterion requires EHRs to support patient access to their data via a standardized API?

    Answer: §170.315(g)(10) – Standardized API for patient and population services

    ONC criterion §170.315(g)(10) mandates FHIR R4-based APIs enabling patients and third-party apps to access EHR data without special effort.

  6. In a FHIR implementation, what is the purpose of a CapabilityStatement resource?

    Answer: To declare the FHIR features, resources, and operations supported by a server

    A CapabilityStatement documents what a FHIR server supports, including resource types, interactions, search parameters, and operations, discoverable at the /metadata endpoint.

  7. When de-identifying protected health information under HIPAA, which method requires removal of 18 specific identifiers and expert confirmation of very low re-identification risk?

    Answer: Expert Determination method

    The Expert Determination method allows an expert to certify that the risk of re-identification is very small, even if some identifiers beyond the Safe Harbor list remain.
