Colonoscopy
Colonoscopy includes examining the transverse colon.
Proctosigmoidoscopy involves examining the rectum and sigmoid colon.
Sigmoidoscopy involves examining the rectum, sigmoid colon, and
may include portions of the descending colon (Smith 2017, 121).
Errors that produced changes in MS-DRG assignment
Coding errors can affect the Medicare severity diagnosis-related group (MS-
DRG) assignment, thus impacting the revenue cycle. Ultimately, the coding
supervisor should determine whether the frequency of errors identified
demonstrates a trend (Schraffenberger and Kuehn 2011, 319).
Data precision
Data precision is the term used to describe expected data values. As part of data
definition, the acceptable values or value ranges for each data element must be
defined. For example, a precise data definition related to gender would include
three values: male, female, and unknown (Brinda 2016, 158).
, Comparative
Comparative data collection uses aggregate data to describe the experiences of
unique types of patients with one or more aspects of their care. Hospital
Compare is located on the CMS website and provides aggregate data of
hospitals across the country (Shaw and Carter 2015, 428).

Data dictionary
A data dictionary is a descriptive list of the data elements to be collected in an
information system or database whose purpose is to ensure consistency of
terminology (Brinda 2016, 141).
, Risk management
One strategy in protecting the organization's data is to establish a risk
management program. Risk management encompasses the identification,
evaluation, and control of risks that are inherent in unexpected and
inappropriate events (Rinehart-Thompson 2016c, 260).
Avoid displaying the number on any document, screen, or data collection field
It is generally agreed that Social Security numbers (SSNs) should not be used
as patient identifiers. The Social Security Administration is adamant in its
opposition to using the SSN for purposes other than those identified by law.
AHIMA is in
agreement on this issue due to privacy, confidentiality, and security issues
related to the use of the SSN (Sayles 2016b, 59).
