Bridges Exam

Exam for certification of Epic Bridges Intro Course

QuestionAnswer
T or F: Every HL7 message has to be encoded with the characters |^\&. False- any printable ASCII characters can serve as encoding characters.
Imagine that your message begins with MSH|^~\&|. How would you encode the string "the result is positive & has a value of 2.7 x 10^3? C: The result is positive \T\ has a value of 2.7 x 10\S\3
What makes the NTE segment special? It is context based
T or F: An incoming interface will treat an empty field || different than |""|. True- the interface treats |""| as a deletion indicator and ignores an empty field.
Which standards are supported in Bridges? FHIR, NCPDP, HL7 V3
What is stored in the Data Queue? message content, timestamps, event string.
What is stored to the control queue? Pointer to message on data queue.
T or F: Messages are purged from the data queue immediately after being processed. False- Only the automated purge process deletes messages from the data queue.
T or F: XML messages must use interconnect as part of the communications process. True
What are the reasons an incoming message might be re-sequenced? The record updated by the message is currently locked for editing by a user or another message exists on the holding queue that will update the same record.
T or F: you can start more than one interface at a time with the interface monitor True- you can start any or all interfaces in a given interface monitor
What must happen before you can add an interface to your new interface monitor? Add the interface to the background monitor using background monitor definition.
What properties are available to specify which interface are included in an alert rule? Interface ID and is interface on monitor
T or F: The interface monitor session history and bridges event audit report show the same info False- the session history only shows the action taken by the logged in user during the current session while the bridges event audit will show actions taken by all users.
What pieces of information are available in the interface message activity? message content, logged errors, and related records.
T or F: when editing a message in the messages activity, the activity validates that the content entered matches the expected HL7 format for the field. False
What happens to the errors on a message when it is retriggered? The errors are marked as deleted, but remain the database
T or F: resubmitting an outgoing message will pull the most recent data from the database before sending the message False
When using SlicerDicer, what standard data model exist for Bridges? Interface Errors and Interface Messages
What actions are only available in the interface workqueue activity and not in the error log report? transfer, add note, and release.
What actions can you take on the messages associated with an error when running an error log report? resubmit message and retrigger message.
When encountering an error for the first time, what are the three buckets? fix, work, and suppress.
How are error step groups linked to an error? Step groups apply to an interface/error code combination.
What conditions should an error meet before it is configured to be captured by a workqueue? Error has a defined resolution path and has an assigned and trained user to fix it.
What tools can display data based on errors that we logged today? reporting workbench error log report, radar dashboard top failure errors not on a workqueue, and interface error workqueues.
What are valid triage statuses in the error resolution planner activity? complete, assigned, unassigned, and under investigation.
T or F: when you change a profile variable setting in one interface specification, it affects every other interface specification. False
What requirements are needed when setting up a INTF_USER (2) profile variable? You are required to have it set to a user (emp) record before you can start the interface, if this is missing this setting will display a validation error in the interface specification.
T or F: The technical specification should be the first place you go to for help with an interface False- you should use the reference guide in hyperspace. The reference guide contains all info Epic has about a specific interface. The technical spec only shows the HL7 fields/elements that are supported.
The profile variable RACE_ITEM controls how PID-10 is filed on an interface. If the interface has RACE_ITEM set to 1-Use Race-EPT 145 and interface system defaults has RACE_ITEM set to 0-use ethnic group-EPT 135, where will PID-10 file into Epic? Only to EPT 145
What is not found in the bridges system defaults? system wide purge setting
What do you need to identify a patient using identity? ID and ID type
T or F: an identity ID must be unique across the entire system. False- you can have the same identity ID for different records in the same master file as long as they are tied to different identity ID types.
What concepts would you use Identity for their mapping? procedures, departments, patients, and allergies.
T or F: you must receive an ID type over the interface to find a record in Epic using Identity False- an ID Type can be defaulted, or a programming point can be used to find an ID type.
What characteristics are tied to translation tables? used to map category values, and the values are typically static.
Describe the auto lookup option available for translation tables and a good example of when you might use it. Auto lookup leverages the category list build in Epic to establish the mapping between external values and Epic's internal vaules. The most common use case for this would be for US states where the abbreviations (ex: TX) are universally used.
When is duplicate prevention preformed? When an incoming interface that can create patients does not find the patient by ID and ID type.
What is not a possible outcome of patient duplication prevention checking? medium threshold match(es)
When is patient validation preformed? when an incoming interface finds a patient using ID and ID type to make sure it found the correct patient and when an incoming interface that can create patients finds a patient using ID and ID type to make sure it found the correct patient.
What properties of an Identity Duplicate Configuration (IDC) record can be used for patient validation? sex properties, name properties, address, and email.
T or F: Identity Duplicate Configuration (IDC) validation uses the low threshold for patient validation. False- only the high threshold of the IDC is used for patient validation.
What are the 3 methods for data migration of interface build and when to use each one? Content Management-used for interface, tables, workqueues etc), Import/Export records-includes some objects not supported in CM like error resolution plan records, and Manual Build-for objects Epic expects you will build in each environment ex: monitor
What online tool can you use to document details about issues you encounter and share with your Epic rep? Sherlock
T or F: content management tickets can be used to migrate an interface specification. True
