What components are included in CBIS that work together for healthcare information management?

  1. Database management systems, coding languages, and internet access

  2. Hardware, software, networks, and storage

  3. Nursing staff, patient care protocols, and insurers

  4. Secure email systems, cloud services, and patient interfaces

The correct answer is: Hardware, software, networks, and storage

CBIS (Computer-Based Information Systems) includes hardware, software, networks, and storage as the components that work together for healthcare information management. Option A is incorrect because database management systems and coding languages are specific types of software and do not encompass all components of CBIS. Option C is incorrect because nursing staff, patient care protocols, and insurers are important in healthcare but are not part of CBIS. Option D is incorrect because secure email systems, cloud services, and patient interfaces are also specific types of software and do not encompass all components of CBIS. Hardware, software, networks, and storage are all essential components that must work together for effective healthcare information management.
