WGU C427 Questions and Answers Latest
2022 Rated A
Electronic medication administration record ✔✔A patient presents to the inpatient unit following
surgery. The receiving nurse has not heard a report from the operating room (OR) nurse. The
patient is experiencing great discomfort, and the receiving nurse wishes to see the documentation
for any pain medication given by the previous nurse. The leadership has not achieved meaningful
use stage 2 yet.
Which point of care system software will improve communication?
Laboratory information system
Computerized provider order entry
Picture archiving communication system
Electronic medication administration record
Interoperability protocols ✔✔A medical facility meaningful use objective is to develop a health
IT system. The medical facility objective is to improve patient engagement. In order to improve
patient engagement it will be necessary to communicate with patients through a patient portal.
What will be needed for this implementation?
Local area network
Open source software
Interoperability protocols
Clinical workflow analysis
Lack of communication from management ✔✔Leadership at a healthcare organization implements
a new electronic healthcare record system without performing appropriate workflow analysis. The
staff stopped using the system within one week and the implementation was unsuccessful.
,What is the primary issue that contributed to the implementation's failure?
Lack of a physician champion
Failure to incorporate legacy data
Failure to select an appropriate vendor
Lack of communication from management
The server was configured incorrectly. ✔✔A healthcare organization implemented a new
electronic health records system using an in-house server. From the first week of go-live, users
complained that the system was too slow and was unusable when a lot of users were entering data
at the same time. The information technology department has determined the issue to be an
infrastructure problem.
What should have been the foreseeable cause of the system performance problem?
The server room is too hot.
The network cable runs are too long.
The server was configured incorrectly.
The user access privileges are inadequate.
Data sent to the HMIS from a wearable device that tracks in real time ✔✔A patient is at high risk
of stroke. The patient's physician is concerned about adherence to the recommended weight loss
and diet recommendations. The physician is on an integrated hospital management information
system (HMIS).
Which documentation format will ensure accurate and timely data is presented to the physician?
Manual logging of data in a logbook for entry into the HMIS
Data sent to the HMIS from a wearable device that tracks in real time
HMIS alerts about out-of-range readings sent to the patient via a patient portal
, Record of symptoms completed by patient via a paper report and faxed to HMIS
Security and ease of use ✔✔A hospital realizes patients are expecting access to personal health
records on demand. In response, they want to build a mobile health application that would be
widely adopted and meet the needs of the majority of the patients.
Which feature of the mobile healthcare application should be the focus to meet these goals?
Speed and accuracy
Security and ease of use
Designed for use on specific devices
Immediate use of emerging platforms
Decreased data storage costs
Preservation of the longitudinal patient record ✔✔As part of an enterprise implementation of a
new electronic health record, a healthcare organization decides to migrate 10 years of legacy data
from the previous system into a cloud.
What are two benefits to this organization by doing this?
Choose 2 answers
Decreased data storage costs
Quicker learning curve among clinical staff
Preservation of the longitudinal patient record
Improved quality assurance testing during implementation phase
Communication with people who have similar conditions ✔✔Social media has changed the way
patients access and share medical information. One of the most active groups of information
seekers is made up of those who suffer from rare or chronic conditions.
