Why should an HCO be concerned about end-user license agreements (EULAs) during EHR vendor negotiations, given the contract serves as an agreement between the HCO and the EHR vendor? The EHR vendor contract will cover all EHR components, even those from third-party vendors. The EHR vendor will absorb all third-party vendor liability on behalf of the HCO. The EHR vendor may incorporate a third-party software component in the EHR. The EULAs of that third-party component may affect the HCO's financial agreement with the EHR vendor. If the EHR vendor uses third-party software components in its EHR system, the HCO needs to be fully aware of that third-party vendor's EULA security, access, and resource utilization terms and conditions regardless of the EHR vendor's relationship with that third party.

Sam Vincente works in an acute care hospital as a critical care nurse. All of the devices that monitor a patient's vital signs automatically populate the vital signs data to the patient's electronic record except for one. The hospital has purchased new respirometers, which automatically measure a patient's respiratory rate. The devices function well. They have display panels and also produce digital data that could automatically populate the part of the patient's record called a flowsheet, but it is in the wrong format and is incompatible with the patient's EHR. At 10-minute intervals, Sam has to manually calculate a patient's respiratory rate and then enter it into the record. Based on this scenario, what would be a solution to this problem? Leave things as they are. Entering the respiration is not that big a task. Replace respiration monitors with monitors that are compatible with the EHR. Replace the EHR software with a system that is more compatible with patient monitoring devices. Use middleware to format the data so that the EHR system will accept it.

false

True or false? AC Hospital has had friendly relations with the top vendor during the system selection effort. The hospital's contract negotiation team should make it a priority to maintain that friendly relationship throughout negotiations.

false

True or false? AC Hospital plans to acquire an EHR system. Its first step in the strategic planning process should be to review the hospital's project timeline.

false

True or false? Although cost concerns should be included in the contract, they are relatively minor compared with other issues.

false

True or false? An admission-discharge-transfer (ADT) system is used for auditing financial transactions in a healthcare environment.

false

True or false? An interface engine is used solely for messaging within a hospital's internal systems.

false

True or false? As a general rule, healthcare financial applications and clinical applications do not need to be integrated.

false

True or false? Deciding how data should be encoded for transmission is not a data standard.

false

True or false? Determining requirements is fairly straightforward, so this step is often overlooked or ignored even though it is a mistake to skip the effort.

false

True or false? Educational vendor demonstrations are very detailed and should be attended only after the HCO project team has evaluated the target vendors thoroughly and the selection is down to no more than three possible vendors.

false

True or false? Functional requirements provide critical elements for inclusion in the RFP. The nonfunctional requirements are informative but not necessary to the RFP content.

false

True or false? No matter how effectively planned and organized the system selection process may be, the stakeholders are unlikely to understand and accept the impact the EHR system might have on processes and workflow.

false

True or false? Nonfunctional requirements describe the capabilities of the system and specify what the user should be able to do with the system but with less detail than provided by the functional requirements.

false

True or false? Order duplication checking is normally reserved for medication orders.

false

True or false? Purchasing a certified EHR system ensures that a healthcare organization will have a system that is user-friendly and aligns with its standard clinical workflows.

false

True or false? The EHR system is one of the largest capital expenditures an HCO will ever make, although the annual maintenance fees are relatively small.

false

True or false? The project manager serves on either the project team or the steering committee.

false

True or false? The provider should ensure there is a way for the vendor to get out of the contract if the vendor is unhappy.

false

True or false? When condensing the list of vendors to whom to send an RFP, the provider should choose only vendors who can meet the provider's specified RFP response deadline.

false

True or false? When thinking about change management, the HCO leadership should identify all costs associated with the EHR system implementation.

false

True or false? Adverse drug reactions and events are usually tracked in the radiology information system (RIS)

false Adverse drug reactions are NOT tracked in the RIS. The RIS contains components that schedule and track patients as well as report results and manage medical images.

True or false? Once the requirements are determined, the request for proposal (RFP) can be written.

false After the functional and nonfunctional requirements are determined and documented, the use case technique is utilized to finalize the requirements. Then the RFP is written. System selection step 3, determine requirements and write the RFP, includes each of those activities.

True or false? The organizational development plan (ODP) includes an accurate and flexible EHR project timeline.

false Although a project timeline is important, the ODP does not directly address the timeline. The project timeline is developed by the project manager on the basis of completion of the requirements gathering effort.

True or false? Documenting use case scenarios is very time consuming. Therefore, use cases should be used on a limited basis.

false Correct. Use case scenarios are time consuming but are also a strong determinant for requirements. The time devoted to use cases during systems selection will save significant time and money in the implementation and will better ensure system adoption.

True or false? AC Hospital faces serious deadlines and is concerned that all the time it spends in negotiations might be wasted if negotiations deteriorate. Therefore, AC Hospital should initiate single-vendor negotiations with its top vendor immediately.

false Dual negotiations is the best approach if there are significant deadlines because if negotiations with one vendor deteriorate, negotiation with the other is already underway.

True or false? The 12-step system selection process is more like a menu of choices than like a checklist.

false Each step is essential, and the combination of these steps helps ensure the most effective result of the system selection process, which means time and cost savings and more likely success and adoption of the system.

True or false? Although the 12-step system selection process is helpful in choosing an EHR that fits the clinical needs of the practice, the selection process offers little monetary value.

false Following an organized and effective system selection process such as the 12 step system will save time and expense.

True or false? Training starts after the EHR system is selected.

false From the beginning of the EHR project, staff should be given opportunities to participate in trade shows, online learning, vendor demonstrations, and site visits. These opportunities provide essential information about EHR systems and occur before a specific vendor is chosen. Of course, formal training is provided directly on the chosen EHR system.

True or false? Health information exchanges (HIEs) are created for information exchange among regional hospitals.

false HIEs are created for information exchange among regional hospitals but also include other providers such as physician practices.

True or false? Arural Hospital has decided to lease rather than purchase its computer hardware. This decision has no advantages for the hospital other than that the lease fees will be posted as an operating expense rather than capital expense.

false Leasing its hardware is advantageous to the HCO. The HCO is not in the IT business, so it is not likely to budget to upgrade hardware regularly. With a hardware lease, the hospital has the opportunity to upgrade its computer technology regularly at the end of each lease period.

True or false? An effectively organized, studied, and informed system selection process will educate the stakeholders about all the possible EHR vendor offerings on the market.

false One of the goals of an effective system selection process is to narrow the list of potential vendor offerings to those that best fit the provider's needs, particularly given the many available EHR systems on the market.

True or false? Vendor reference checks are not important when compared to the RFP response and vendor demonstration evaluations.f

false The average system life span is 10 years. That is a long time to be tied to a vendor who provides poor customer support or who goes out of business halfway through the contract term. Careful reference checks can help prevent such issues by eliminating vendors who present risks.

True or false? When an organization decides to buy or build a software solution, that decision primarily affects the organization up to and during system implementation.

false The buy-or-build decision affects the organization throughout system's life cycle because ongoing maintenance is impacted significantly. A decision to buy means an ongoing relationship with the vendor. A decision to build means in-house IT staff and subject matter experts will be needed.

True or false? Only the system selection committee should attend the vendor demonstrations.

false The provider should strive for all stakeholders to view the vendor demonstrations. The participation of all stakeholders will provide more robust feedback and help ensure a successful system implementation and adoption.

True or false? Use cases are critical to the effort to negotiate the vendor contract.

false The requirements extracted from the use case scenarios will be represented as features and functions that must be identified in the vendor contract. However, it makes no difference at all that a particular requirement was sourced from a use case.

True or false? Because Dr. Wong leased a COTS EHR system, he does not need any IT expertise during implementation, nor does he need anyone on his staff who deals with IT issues postimplementation.

false The vendor will absorb all the IT development time and effort for a commercial vendor EHR system. However, Dr. Wong learned it was necessary to have his office manager learn some basic IT skills and act as liaison with the vendor. Dr. Wong also contacted his state-run regional extension center (REC) to assist with vendor selection and coordination during the implementation.

True or false? There are so many vendors at an EHR trade show that the HCO project team should split up and visit all of them to strengthen their efforts to select the best EHR vendor to meet their needs.

false Trade shows are a good opportunity for members of the HCO project team to attend demonstrations and talk with a variety of EHR vendors. However, these shows can be overwhelming, so prior to attending, the team should identify target vendor candidates and design a simple tool for recording findings.

True or false? When request for proposal (RFP) responses, vendor demonstrations, and site visits are evaluated as part of the system selection process, the usability tasks and measures should be defined.

false Usability tasks and measures should be documented in the RFP, so they must be defined before the RFP responses, vendor demonstrations, and site visits occur.

True or false? Cost is the greatest barrier to EHR system utilization.

false Usability, not cost, is the biggest barrier to EHR system utilization. An EHR system might perform all the functions necessary to allow the provider to achieve meaningful use, but if the features and functions are not efficient, effective, and satisfactory to the provider, the system may not be used. As many as 30 percent of all private-practice EHR systems are uninstalled after installation at a tremendous loss of time and money to the provider.

True or false? Use case scenarios assist in the process of ranking requirements prior to writing the RFP.

false Use case scenarios are a source for determining requirements. Once those requirements are added to this list, they are ranked according to the provider's priorities. Use cases do not aid that effort.

True or false? The system selection team will give more weight to the demonstration ratings submitted by members of their own group.

false Each member of the system selection team will probably have a favorite vendor before they view the vendor demonstrations. That brings a bias to their findings. Therefore, opinions from participants not on that team should be given more weight because they are probably more open-minded.

The missing option from this choice is ___systems, which are usually cloud-based offerings for which the vendor offsets the cost of development with some form of Internet advertising. ____ software is either COTS (as-is) or MOTS (modifiable). In-house-build software might be a completely unique software solution developed by in-house staff or might start with an open source software product that is modified by in-house staff.

Learn the meaning of HL7 keywords such as shall, should, and may. --YesNo Concentrate on the direct care and supportive sections of HL7. --YesNo Learn to read the HL7 hierarchical model. --YesNo Limit research to the information infrastructure aspects of each HL7 function. --YesNo

yes no yes no Feedback Part 1 Correct. It is essential to learn the keywords and what they mean in the HL7 vernacular and to understand, for example, the difference between a feature that shall be and one that may be included. Part 2 Incorrect. Providers should use all of the HL7 data relevant to their practice. If they concentrate solely on the direct care and supportive sections of HL7, relevant information infrastructure concepts might be missed. Part 3 Correct. Information in HL7 is organized as a hierarchy, which sounds straightforward, but HL7 is also huge, so it is important to understand the hierarchy when reading and interpreting a standard. Part 4 Correct. Provider should use all of the HL7 data relevant to their practice. If they concentrate solely on the information infrastructure sections, clinical and administrative EHR features and functions will probably be missed.

Which of these options represents a major goal of certification of EHR systems? Select Yes or No for each option.

Dr. Takahashi wants an EHR system in his office, and he has narrowed his choices to a cloud-based vendor system and an in-house EHR system popular among his peers. Both options are endorsed by his state's regional extension center. The cloud-based vendor provides Internet-based training and implementation support. These services are provided in-house by the in-house EHR system vendor for an extra fee. If he decides on the in-house EHR, which of these costs will Dr. Takahashi incur that would be absorbed by the vendor if he chose the cloud-based system? Select Yes or No for each option. EHR system hardware/software infrastructure costs --YesNo EHR system hardware/software ongoing maintenance costs --YesNo EHR annual subscription or leasing fees --YesNo Regular EHR system backup costs --yesNo

yes yes no yes Part 1 Incorrect. All hardware and software that supports an in-house EHR system is purchased or leased by the provider. The cloud alternative would require only desktop PCs. Part 2 Correct. Dr. Takahashi will have to pay for ongoing maintenance of the hardware and software that supports the in-house EHR system. For a cloud-based solution, the vendor would absorb these costs. Part 3 Incorrect. Dr. Takahashi probably does not realize any savings with this item. An in-house EHR system vendor will charge an annual leasing fee. A cloud vendor will probably charge an annual subscription fee. Part 4 Correct. Dr. Takahashi will have to pay for regular backups of the in-house EHR system. For a cloud-based solution, the vendor would absorb this cost.

St. Knox Hospital has decided to acquire an EHR system rather than build one. Which of the following represent system options the hospital should now consider? Select Yes or No for each option. COTS systems --YesNo Cloud-based freeware --YesNo MOTS systems --YesNo
