    If you have access to Allscripts, are you allowed to use your employee access to view your own medical record?

    • Yes, it’s your medical information; you can look at it when you want.

    • No, you are not allowed to use your employee access to look at your own medical record.

    Correct Answer
    A. No, you are not allowed to use your employee access to look at your own medical record.
    Explanation
    The answer is "No, you are not allowed to use your employee access to look at your own medical record." This is because accessing one's own medical record using employee access may violate privacy and confidentiality policies. It is important to maintain the integrity and security of medical records, and allowing employees to access their own records using their employee access can lead to potential breaches or misuse of sensitive information.

    Dana wants to send flowers to her co-worker for his birthday. Is Dana allowed to get her co-worker’s address from a Columbia Medical Associates system?

    • Yes, she knows the co-worker would like the flowers and wouldn’t have a problem with her looking up that information.

    • No, Columbia Medical Associates information should only be used for business purposes.

    Correct Answer
    A. No, Columbia Medical Associates information should only be used for business purposes.
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "No, Columbia Medical Associates information should only be used for business purposes." This answer is based on the principle that accessing personal information from a company's system should only be done for legitimate business reasons. In this case, Dana wanting to send flowers to her co-worker's birthday does not qualify as a business purpose, so it would be inappropriate for her to retrieve the co-worker's address from the Columbia Medical Associates system.

    Correct Answer
    A. Yes, secure or lock my computer.

    It is important to secure or lock the computer before leaving the desk, even for a quick trip to the copier. This ensures that unauthorized individuals cannot access or tamper with the computer and its contents in the user's absence.

    A 14 year old patient comes in for a pregnancy test. The patient’s mother calls the clinic, she didn’t know her daughter was going in for care and wants information about why her child is there. Can you tell the mother why the patient is being seen?

    • Yes, the patient is still a child and the mother has the right to know.

    • No, 14 year olds have the right to choose if reproductive information is shared with family.

    Correct Answer
    A. No, 14 year olds have the right to choose if reproductive information is shared with family.
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "No, 14 year olds have the right to choose if reproductive information is shared with family." In many places, minors have the right to confidentiality when it comes to reproductive health services. This means that healthcare providers are legally obligated to keep their patients' information private, even from their parents or guardians, unless there are specific circumstances where the minor's safety is at risk. Therefore, the mother does not have the right to know why her child is being seen without the patient's consent.

    • No, only managers are required to report privacy breaches.

    Correct Answer

    Explanation
    As a staff member, Chris is required to report all privacy breaches, including his co-worker looking at her own medical record in Allscripts.

Choosing a password that is hard to guess and includes a combination of numbers, letters, and special characters helps to make it more secure. Not writing down passwords prevents them from being easily accessed by others. Changing passwords immediately if there is a suspicion of unauthorized access helps to protect the account. Lastly, never sharing or asking to share passwords with others ensures that they remain confidential and less prone to being compromised.
