I thought secondary care was for specialized services too, but I guess tertiary is more specific for severe cases like this?

This reminds me of a practice question where we discussed levels of care. I believe tertiary is correct here.

I think this is tertiary care since the patient is being sent to a specialized burn center.

I'm not entirely sure, but I remember something about primary care being more general.

This looks like a classic integration problem. I think the key is to find a way to send the order data to the ERP system without overloading it. A scheduled job might be a good approach to handle this.

I remember learning about this in class, but I'm drawing a blank on the specifics. I'll try to eliminate the options I'm less sure about and then make an educated guess.
