Title
The impact of three discharge coding methods on the accuracy of diagnostic coding and hospital reimbursement for inpatient medical care.
Abstract
The accuracy of diagnosis codes and percentage of correct HRGs improved when coders used either case notes or medical support in addition to the discharge summary. Further emphasis needs to be placed on improving the standard of information recorded in discharge summaries.
