Answer to Question 1

D The patient is readmitted for a similar problem within 1 year is incorrect because an interval
H&P can be used when a patient is readmitted for the same or related problem within 30
days. The patient's stay is less than 24 hours and the patient has an uneventful course in
the hospital are incorrect because no matter how long the patient stays or how minor the
condition, an H&P is required.

Answer to Question 2
