TO: Janelle

SUBJECT: Patient Record Accuracy



Accuracy in patient records is a top priority for all of us at Medcap Center. Among the myriad of details that we must enter daily on patient records, errors can sometimes occur. When discovered, we try to correct them as quickly as possible to avoid serious problems in the treatment of our patients.



I am sure that you realize the serious nature of incorrectly recording information on patient charts. The consequence of one error can have far-reaching ramifications, including life-threatening patient issues and medical malpractice. With this in mind, it is critically important that you check and double-check all the information that you enter in patient records.



The recent error you made on Mr. Smith's record was thankfully not life-threatening, but this serves as an important reminder that all information must be checked before entering. This is an essential part of your job, and there is no room for error. Some of our more experienced medical assistants would be glad to provide tips for double-checking patient information prior to recording. I have scheduled a brief training session tomorrow at 8 a.m. with Jeremy Combs who will review this matter with you.
