Assume your CDSS has the following if-then rules: 1. If patient is diabetic     Then Check for retinopathy 2. If check for retinopathy is true     Then schedule eye exam with ophthalmologist Now suppose a new patient comes into the practice and states that they are a diabetic.  This would then fire rule 1’s If part, which in turn would fire rule 2’s If part, which would alert the clinician to schedule an ophthalmology appointment for this new patient. This is an example of what type of rule chaining?
