Answer to Question 1

C A detailed history of the patient is incorrect because some reference to the patient's history
may be found in the discharge summary but not a detailed history. A note for social services
or discharge planning is incorrect because the attending physician records the discharge
summary. Correct codes for significant procedures is incorrect because codes are usually
recorded on a different form in the record.

Answer to Question 2

c
