What reviews are included when evaluating the integrity of a hospital information system?
1. Confidence, competence, and compassion
2. Ethics, confidentiality, and caring processes
3. Empirical data, personal data, and esthetic data
4. Prizing, valuing, and choosing
Correct Answer: 2
Ethics, confidentiality, and caring are important in a high-tech environment, as the technology continues to expand at a rapid pace. Competence is not part of the evaluation of the integrity of hospital information systems. Forms of data; empirical, personal, and esthetic, do not have bearing on the integrity of an information system. Prizing, valuing, and choosing are methods used in decision making and determining the worth of an object.
