Which group typically approves Care Everywhere consent policies?

• A. Nurses and clinical staff.
• B. IT specialists.
• C. Patients.
• D. System administrators, privacy officers, and data governance roles.

Answer: (D)

Care Everywhere consent policies are governance decisions that require oversight by those responsible for privacy, security, and policy standards. The group that typically approves these is system administrators, privacy officers, and data governance roles, who establish and sign off on how data can be shared across organizations; nurses and clinical staff use the policies at the point of care, IT specialists implement them, and patients provide individual consent but do not approve the policy itself.
