3. The Medical Record Value in a Physician’s
Practice & in Patient Care
4. The Medical Record The medical record should be viewed as an extremely important and valuable tool in patient management. All that happens to the patient; all things done to and done for the patient; all relevant professional plans, therapies, and advice; all invasive and noninvasive procedures; all working diagnoses and long term therapeutic plans and goals should be detailed in the record. It must contain all elements set forth by both the medical record committee and practice standards board of a given hospital.
The medical record is viewed as the professional and legal record of a given patient's care. It should therefore be carefully maintained and all entries should be clearly legible. The medical record ( or chart ) should be a clear and accurate documentation of the complete clinical course of the patient. All entries should be legibly written, signed, dated, and timed. With the advent of the electronic medical record, legibility has become much less of an issue as are times and dates
