HIT Chart deficiency system
HIT 220: Chapter 8Case Study-You have been given the responsibility of populating the deficiency and form types that will be used by your new chart deficiency system. The old system has such poor data quality that you are starting from scratch. In the current system, the deficiency type and form number have no logical meaning. For example, the form type of “X” means operative note and “P” is cancer staging form. You have been provided with the template in Tables 5-9 and 5-10. Fill in the tables below and be sure to choose logical codes whenever possible. You may add more rows if necessary.
5-9: Deficiency Type (think of common deficiencies such as signature, date, dictation, etc.)
| Deficiency Type | |
| Deficiency Code | Deficiency Description |
| Ex: T | Transcribe |
5-10: Form Type (think of various forms used within a hospital such as orders, notes, summaries, queries, etc.)
| Form Type | |
| Form Code | Form Description |
| Ex: OP | Operative Note |
