Which data types are commonly exchanged via Care Everywhere CCDA documents?

• A. Demographics, problems, allergies, medications, labs, immunizations, procedures, encounters, and care summaries.
• B. Billing codes and insurance eligibility only.
• C. Appointment reminders and marketing data.
• D. Imaging studies and radiology reports only.

Answer: (A)

Care Everywhere CCDA documents are designed to share a standardized set of clinical information that supports continuity of care across different providers. The common data types included are demographics; problems (diagnoses); allergies; medications; labs (results); immunizations; procedures; encounters (past visits); and a care summary (plan of care, goals, and related notes). This collection gives a broad, practical view of a patient’s health history, enabling safer decisions, better coordination, and smoother transitions between care settings.

Billing codes and insurance eligibility are financial aspects, not the focus of CCDA data exchange. Appointment reminders and marketing data aren’t clinical information. Imaging studies and radiology reports aren’t the primary CCDA content either, as imaging is typically handled in separate, specialized documents, though references to imaging may appear in some workflows.
