Chapter 10 Bedside Questions · 9 questions · about 9 minutes
Root cause analysis / M&M conference on a failed drug trial: the drug (informatics) looked like it failed because patients got no dose, a placebo, or a miscalculated fraction of the dose.
A discipline in disarray, operationally: whether your informatics roles are defined, credentialed, staffed and given a career path. Answer Yes only when someone can produce the evidence today.
Answer as your executive team would, with the evidence in hand. Each question has a factual answer in a system you already own.

A profession with no definition, no standard deployment, and no published results is not yet a profession. It is a name in circulation.
