Answer to Question 1

The folder should include an area for the patient's name and number, and the facility's name and address.

Answer to Question 2

Color coding is the assignment of color to primary (and, in some cases, secondary) patient numbers or letters used for filing patient records. Color bars are placed on the sides/edges of file folders so that when filed, all records with the same primary (and secondary) numbers have the same color pattern. The purpose of color coding is to identify misfiles easily.
