Question

HIM us counted on yo process information very quickly after discharge. Do you think it was a good idea for the HIM Manager to leave the stack of forms on the HIM Director's desk to get clarification upon her return?

Answer 1

Answer:

No

Explanation:

Health information management (HIM) is defined as the practice of protecting the medical information of a patient in order to provide quality patient care.

HIM Manager has the responsibility to acquire and protect the patients' information and do not leave the forms on the HIM Director's desk to get clarification upon her return because in between the return of the Director, the medical information can be violated and the manager will not able to ensure patient information privacy and security.

Hence, HIM Manager should not leave the stack of forms on the HIM Director's desk rather he/she can come again with the forms when HIM Director will return.
