2. Which tool tracks, resources, milestones, and time frames associated with the implementation of a new clinical program?

A database

An expert system

Project management software

Spreadsheet software

3. Arranging patient recording according to ascending patient ID numbers is an example of which type of file organization?

4. What are two major types of interfaces?

Point-to-point interface and software reliance systems

5. Which is an example of level one user of authenticity?

Requires retinal scanning

Uses encrypted key base authentication

Requires regular password updating

No security is needed

1. Level One Authenticity for security: * Once an individual is logged into the system (using their name and password), their name appears on the screen and their access is tracked as they use the system. * Users are automatically logged out after come period of inactivity and must log in again to continue using the system. * Must update their password (set to a specific level of complexity) on a regular basis. (e.g. monthly).

It is a filmless medical system

14. Which are not programming languages

SAS and C++

JAVA and Python

SQL and HTML

COBOL and Visual Basic

HyperText Markup Language – is a markup language, not a programming language. It is the the building blocks for web pages. was originally called SEQUEL for Structured English Query Language, SQL, still pronounced “sequel”, stands for Query Language, a database querying language, not programming language.

15. Which is an example of level two user of authenticity?

Once logged on name appears on screen and access is tracked

User requires a computer access card (CAC)

Uses biometric authentication or requires fingerprint scanning

2. Level Two Authenticity for Security: * Encrypted key-based authentication, * User must present computer access card (CAC) to the system before they can log on, * Log out occurs automatically is CAC is too far from the computer.

16. Which is an example of level three user of authenticity?

Users are logged out after a period of inactivity

Users are logged out if Computer access card (CAC) is too far from computer

Cannot be lost or stolen

3. Level Three Authenticity for security: * Biometric authentication, * Uses something unique to the individual such as fingerprint, retinal scan or face recognition, * Cannot be lost or stolen, * Some newer laptops now come with a a fingerprint scanner built in.
