Authentication & Abbreviations

AUTHENTICATION: All clinical entries in the patient’s medical
record shall be legible, accurately dated, timed and authenticated by
written or electronic signature. The practitioner whose signature the
electronic signature represents is the only one who possesses the
password and he alone uses it. A signed confidential statement must be
on file for each physician. Practitioners granted group signature rights
may use electronic signature utilizing their own passwords only.

ABBREVIATIONS: The Medical Executive Committee approved the
Hospital list of “Do Not Use” abbreviations. An official record of the
sanctioned unapproved abbreviations is kept on file in the Health
Information Management Services Department and is available at all
nursing stations. Orders with unapproved abbreviations must be
clarified and rewritten; failure to use proper abbreviations and use of
prohibited abbreviations may result in medical staff action.
Operative Reports


A comprehensive operative progress note must be entered in the medical
record immediately after a surgery or procedure to provide pertinent
information for use by any individual who is required to attend to the
patient.
Operative Reports may be dictated or written in the medical record
immediately following surgery. The Operative Progress Note Form may be
used. In addition to the immediate written post-procedure note, all
operative or procedure reports must be dictated within 24 hours of the
procedure.
All dictated or written Operative Reports shall include:
1. Description of findings
2. Technical procedures used
3. Specimens removed
4. Postoperative diagnosis
5. Estimated blood loss
6. Name of primary surgeon and any assistants and/or anesthesiologists
Progress Notes

Progress notes shall be written at least daily on all patients. Dated
progress notes shall be recorded at the time of observation,
sufficient to permit continuity of care and transferability. Patient’s
clinical problems should be clearly identified in the progress notes
and correlated with specific orders and test and treatment results as
appropriate. Progress notes will not be required on the day of a
patient’s discharge as long as the patient meets the pre-established
discharge criteria set by that department. Physicians will be notified
if their patients fail to meet criteria on discharge day and will then
be responsible for progress note(s).
Consultation Reports

Consultation reports shall contain:
◦ evidence of a review of the patient’s record by the
