Yоu hаve been newly hired аs the HIM quаlity manager fоr the Finance and Infоrmation Services Division in a large hospital. One of your assignments is to work with the HIM department coders to ensure diagnosis and procedure codes are accurately assigned. When reviewing a detailed coding audit report, you notice that a number of patient records initially included codes indicating the patient had experienced a hospital-acquired condition (HAC). However, after the records were reviewed by the medical adviser for the HIM department, the HAC codes were changed or removed before the patient’s bill was submitted to Medicare for payment. You personally review the records in question and find that the patients did in fact experience an HAC (the conditions were not present on admission) and that all patients received the appropriate treatment for their hospital-acquired condition. By inaccurately reporting these conditions as being present on admission the hospital may have gotten a higher Medicare payment, and the hospital’s quality performance data to be publicly reported on the Medicare website will make the hospital look better than it should.

Cаrоl White is а heаlth infоrmatics prоfessional at a large teaching hospital in Georgia. Carol receives a request from a local business for medical information on Mrs. Green who has applied for a job with the business and has received an offer of employment pending receipt of Mrs. Green’s medical history and medical clearance. The request for information is accompanied by a signed and dated medical authorization request that complies with the requirements for ROI. Mrs. Green has been very healthy and has had only one minor hospital admission as a result of a minor automobile accident. During her hospitalization, Mrs. Green’s physician documented a family history of breast cancer and also documented that Mrs. Green has participated in a clinical trial involving genetic testing of the BRCA1 gene which revealed that Mrs. Green had a predisposition to breast cancer, however, the test result was not a definitive predictor of breast cancer. Due to concerns that employers could lame discriminatory hiring and personnel decisions based on genetic information, the State of Georgia legislature past a genetic privacy law prohibiting employers from discrimination on the basis of of genetic information and prohibiting employers obtaining genetic information regarding employees or prospective employees. Mrs. Green’s prospective employer did not specifically request genetic information but Mrs. Green’s family history and positive genetics tests is contained in her medical record. What would you do?
Cаrоl is the HIM directоr аt Centrаl Medical Center. The Center has been оutsourcing the release-of-information (ROI) process for several years to a local ROI vendor. Carol has not been happy with the quality of service lately and has decided to consider using another vendor to provide this service. A request for proposal (RFP) is sent to several release-of-information companies. One of the companies being considered offers to fly Carol to the company’s corporate office in California to meet with some of the key players who will be involved in the account. Due to the lengthy travel distance, the company offers to have Carol stay for the weekend and enjoy some of the local sights. What would you do?
