- A.
  
  True
- B.
  
  False

Explanation
HIPAA stands for Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act. This act was passed in 1996 and introduced several standards for the protection of patient health information. These standards had a significant impact on the early development of Electronic Health Records (EHRs). EHRs store and transmit sensitive patient data electronically, and HIPAA regulations required healthcare organizations to implement measures to ensure the privacy and security of this information. As a result, EHR systems had to be designed and developed in compliance with HIPAA standards, which influenced their early developmental stages.

Prevention of intentional or unintentional disclosures and modifications to PHI can be accomplished by tracking user access.
- A.
  
  True
- B.
  
  False
Correct Answer
A. True

Explanation
Tracking user access is an effective way to prevent intentional or unintentional disclosures and modifications to PHI (Protected Health Information). By keeping a record of who accesses the information and when, it becomes easier to identify any unauthorized access or suspicious activities. This allows for timely intervention and ensures the security and integrity of PHI. Therefore, the statement is true.
