Q1.
In the Liu Huang case, which of the following best describes the primary purpose of using
standardized terminology in the EHR?
A. To ensure that all clinicians use the same B. To enable semantic interoperability and
language for documentation data aggregation across systems
C. To replace clinical judgment with D. To satisfy legal requirements for
automated coding malpractice defense
Correct: B - To enable semantic interoperability and data aggregation across systems
Rationale:Standardized terminologies like SNOMED CT and LOINC enable consistent
meaning and exchange of health data, which is essential for interoperability. While they also
support consistent documentation (A), their primary purpose in EHRs is to allow data to be
shared and interpreted across different systems. They do not replace clinical judgment (C)
nor exist solely for legal reasons (D).
Q2.
In the Liu Huang case, a patient is diagnosed with 'type 2 diabetes mellitus with diabetic
nephropathy.' Using ICD-10-CM, which code should be assigned?
A. E11.9 Type 2 diabetes mellitus without B. E11.21 Type 2 diabetes mellitus with
complications diabetic nephropathy
C. N08.3 Glomerular disorders in diseases D. E11.22 Type 2 diabetes mellitus with
classified elsewhere diabetic chronic kidney disease
Correct: B - E11.21 Type 2 diabetes mellitus with diabetic nephropathy
Rationale:ICD-10-CM combination codes capture both the diabetes and its manifestation.
E11.21 specifically codes type 2 diabetes with diabetic nephropathy. E11.9 is for
uncomplicated diabetes, N08.3 is a manifestation code that should not be used as the
primary diagnosis, and E11.22 is for diabetic chronic kidney disease, which is a different
condition.
Q3.
In the context of the Liu Huang case, which of the following is the most critical step to
ensure data quality when documenting a patient's problem list?
A. Using the same terminology as the billing B. Ensuring each problem is coded with the
department most specific concept available
Page 3
, Section A - Health Information Management AND Governance
C. Including only chronic conditions, not D. Using free-text entries to capture
acute ones nuances
Correct: B - Ensuring each problem is coded with the most specific concept available
Rationale:Data quality in problem lists requires specificity and standardization. Using the
most specific concept from a controlled vocabulary (e.g., SNOMED CT) ensures clarity and
interoperability. Billing terminology may differ, free-text reduces consistency, and excluding
acute conditions would make the list incomplete.
Q4.
When mapping a local term 'heart attack' to a standardized terminology, which of the
following represents the correct approach?
A. Map directly to the ICD-10-CM code I21.9 B. Use a terminology server to identify the
preferred SNOMED CT concept 'Myocardial
infarction'
C. Assign a local code and document the D. Ask the clinician to clarify the exact
mapping in a separate file medical term
Correct: B - Use a terminology server to identify the preferred SNOMED CT concept
'Myocardial infarction'
Rationale:Mapping should use a terminology server or reference mapping to identify the
appropriate standardized concept. Direct mapping to ICD-10-CM is not ideal because
SNOMED CT is the clinical terminology, while ICD-10-CM is for billing. Local codes without
mapping do not achieve interoperability. Asking the clinician is helpful but not the systematic
approach.
Q5.
In the Liu Huang case, a clinical note contains the phrase 'the patient's creatinine is
elevated at 2.5 mg/dL.' Which LOINC code would be most appropriate for this laboratory
result?
A. LOINC 2160-0: Creatinine [Mass/volume] B. LOINC 3094-0: Urea nitrogen
in Serum or Plasma [Mass/volume] in Serum or Plasma
C. LOINC 33959-8: Glomerular filtration D. LOINC 14682-9: Creatinine
rate/1.73 sq M.predicted among non-blacks [Moles/volume] in Serum or Plasma
Correct: A - LOINC 2160-0: Creatinine [Mass/volume] in Serum or Plasma
Rationale:LOINC 2160-0 is the standard code for serum creatinine in mass/volume units
(mg/dL). The other options are incorrect: 3094-0 is for urea nitrogen, 33959-8 is for eGFR,
and 14682-9 is for creatinine in moles/volume, which would be a different unit.
