Question

central medical hospital uses a computer system to maintain patient records. seaside pharmacy shares certain patient information with the hospital, including patient names and medical history. the pharmacy uses a different computer system, but the data is unaltered when it is updated by employees in either facility. which term best describes the scenario?
○ hybrid health records
○ source - oriented format
○ interoperability
○ intranet

Explanation:

The scenario involves two different computer systems (hospital and pharmacy) sharing and updating patient data without altering it. Interoperability refers to the ability of different systems to work together and exchange information. Hybrid health records relate to record types, source - oriented format is about data format, and intranet is a network. So interoperability best describes the ability of these two systems to share and update data.

Answer:

B. interoperability
