AI for Writing Discharge Summaries Quiz

Answers and explanations appear as you take the quiz.

1. Which type of AI discharge summary error does the guide call most dangerous, because nothing on the page looks wrong?
   • Typographical errors
   • Omission of a complication, medication change or pending result
   • Formatting inconsistencies
   • Summaries that run too long
2. In the lisinopril example, what went wrong in the AI draft?
   • It prescribed a new drug the patient never received
   • It doubled the dose of lisinopril
   • It listed lisinopril under allergies
   • It listed lisinopril as continued when it had been held for kidney injury
3. Why might an AI draft present an early differential diagnosis as the final diagnosis?
   • Working hypotheses get copied forward through daily notes, so they look current
   • The AI prefers rare diagnoses
   • Final diagnoses are never documented in hospitals
   • The AI reads only the first note of the stay
4. According to the guide, where should discharge medications in the summary come from?
   • The model's memory of typical regimens for the diagnosis
   • The home medication list recorded at admission
   • Structured discharge orders in the EHR, not regenerated by the model
   • The patient's recollection at discharge
5. Which item belongs on the physician's review checklist for pending results?
   • Delete pending results to keep the summary short
   • List every pending result and who is responsible for following it up
   • Wait until all results return before discharge
   • Mark pending results as normal
6. Why are word-overlap scores such as ROUGE not enough to judge AI discharge summaries?
   • They can only be calculated for English text
   • They are too expensive to compute
   • They require patient consent
   • They reward text similar to a reference but don't show whether key facts are missing or invented
7. How should the medication section of a discharge summary classify each drug?
   • As new, changed or stopped, with reasons
   • By the color of the pill
   • Alphabetically, without noting changes
   • By cost to the patient
8. Who remains accountable for an AI-drafted discharge summary once it is signed?
   • The AI vendor
   • The hospital's IT department
   • The physician who reviews and signs it
   • The patient's pharmacist
