Mitigation

Use templates for documentation, Train staff on importance of specificity

Using pathology report for tumor size instead of operative report.

Impact

Reimbursement: Incorrect DRG assignment, Compliance: Non-compliance with coding guidelines, Data Quality: Inaccurate clinical data

Mitigation

Use the size from the operative report for coding.

Tumor size documentation

Impact

Inconsistent documentation between pathology and operative reports.

Mitigation

Standardize documentation practices across departments.
