EPIC BRIDGES EXAM 2026 UPDATE QUESTIONS
AND CORRECT VERIFIED ANSWERS ALREADY
GRADED A+ (BRAND NEW VISION)
Error Resolution Steps - ANS-1. Individual Error Steps
2. Group containing the steps
these can be applied to error codes
Step Group - ANS--Apply to specific error code and specific interface
-Allows for different resolution steps for the same code on different interfaces
-Can also apply at the system definition level to apply to error code on all interfaces
-Error step will be invisible unless linked to a specific Interface, or System Definitions
-Step groups on a specific interface override groups linked in the system definitions
Can you delete a message from the Error Report Activity? - ANS-No--messages can never be
manually deleted.
3 Additional actions only available in a workqueue vs. Error Log Report - ANS-1. Release
2. Transfer
3. Add note
Primary Interface Configuration Settings - ANS-Profile Variables
What is contained in the System Definitions? - ANS--Triggers for outgoing interfaces
,-System-wide profile variables
-System-wide error handling
INTF_USER Profile Variable - ANS--interface will not start until this variable is defined
-User associated with the interface audit trail
For a Custom Override to take effect... - ANS-Compile and Restart the Interface
Profile Variable Usage Report - ANS-Compare profile variables across interfaces
Profile Variable Audit Report - ANS-Tracks the changes to a profile variable within a specific
interface.
Does editing the profile variable in one interface change them for another? - ANS-No. Just the
one Interface where the specification was changed.
Editing the System Definitions profile variables requires: - ANS-Restarting all Interfaces listed in
the Background Monitor
Inherited profile variables come from: - ANS-System Definitions
Easiest system override: - ANS-Skip a field
True/False: A single custom override can be used across multiple Interfaces of the same type. -
ANS-True.
, Interface Header Tab - ANS-Controls contents of the MSH segment. Configure MSH-11 and
MSH-12 here.
Epic Entrprise Master Patient List - ANS-Identity
Enterprise Master Patient Index - ANS-Lets you correctly identify records in a setting where
each record may have more than one type of ID
Identity - ANS-Helps find the correct record by maintaining an index of all the IDs associated
with a record. Supports IDs for non-patients like procedures, immunizations, and medications.
Can be configured for a large number of master files.
2 elements of identity - ANS-ID and ID Type
How Identity works with external IDs - ANS-Pairing them with ID Type to provide context
3 Master files most prevalent in Identity - ANS--EPT
-SER
-EAP
<blank> Interface is the heaviest user of General Tables - ANS-Incoming Transcription Interface
Table with many-to-one mapping - ANS--multiple values translate to the same result
-valid if the values in the source column have no duplicates
-applicable to tables that perform only incoming or outgoing mapping
Record-level IDs should be mapping using... - ANS-Identity
