You are Regional Director for a Healthcare System that includes two hospitals, several clinics, and a long-term care facility. You have been asked to evaluate hospital comparison data and develop a dashboard to benchmark aspects of the coding function for internal and national standards. The information is used by HIM managers and coding supervisors across the network. HIM works closely with reimbursement and revenue, so you may include data on length of stay, accounts receivable, DRGs, or case mix index as part of your dashboard presentation. Hospital Comparison Data

• Using the Hospitals Compare feature on the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services website, access benchmarking data for local hospitals – https://www.medicare.gov/hospitalcompare/search.html?

• Conduct a search by name, proximity, or geography following the instructions under the heading “Find a Hospital?”

• Select at least two facilities to compare by selecting “Add to Compare” • Select “Compare Now” • Select one of the Categories/Tabs at the top (example – Survey, Complications) • Select a Category from the drop-down arrow(s) • Select “Show Graphs” • Export to MS Excel and save the data and graphs. • Evaluate the report. • Analyze the data and identify trends. • Interpret the data

Coding Data

• Research national coding standards from AHIMA body of knowledge and other resources.

• Compare the various aspects of the standards. • Create a coding dashboard based on the standards.

o The dashboard should contain at least three different coding aspects. The data can be qualitative or quantitative, for inpatient or outpatient coding.

o You should include at least two graphs to help create your dashboard. Use MS Excel to create the graphs. Include actual data within tables to create a good graphical display.

Dashboard & Assessment Create a 15-slide PowerPoint presentation to include:

• Visuals and graphs of hospital data and coding data – as your dashboard. • For each graph, provide a 1-2 paragraph summary to explain what the information

reflects, and why it is a valuable tool for HIM services and managers. • Evaluate the use of benchmarking and comparative data. • Based on your interpretation of the hospital and coding data results, what are your

predictions or assumptions about the data. • Evaluate the report using various statistical methods.

 

 

• Justify your interpretation based on summary of data and references. • Recommend how you intend to use the data for making decisions for HIM managers and

coding supervisors across the hospital system. • Provide a summary of your references.

Assignment 1: Case Study Assignment: Assessing Neurological Symptoms

 

Imagine not being able to form new memories. This is the reality patients with anterograde amnesia face. Although this form of amnesia is rare, it can result from severe brain trauma. Anterograde amnesia demonstrates just how impactful brain disorders can be to a patient’s quality of living. Accurately assessing neurological symptoms is a complex process that involves the analysis of many factors.

In this Case Study Assignment, you will consider case studies that describe abnormal findings in patients seen in a clinical setting.

 

CASE STUDY 1: Headaches

 

A 20-year-old male complains of experiencing intermittent headaches. The headaches diffuse all over the head, but the greatest intensity and pressure occurs above the eyes and spreads through the nose, cheekbones, and jaw.
