Answer to Question 1

D Documented in an incident report and filed in the patient's health record is incorrect
because incident reports are written accounts of unusual events that have an adverse effect on
a patient, employee, or facility visitor and should never be filed with the patient's
record. Reported as a potentially compensable event is incorrect because PCEs are
occurrences that could result in financial liability at some future time. A patient leaving AMA
does not in itself suggest a PCE. Reported to the Executive Committee is incorrect because it
is not typical to report AMAs to the Executive Committee. The answer is documented in
both the progress notes and the discharge summary because documenting the event is
crucial in protecting the legal interests of the health care team and facility.
