Routine activities

1. Auditing Discharge Summary (quantitative inspection)

 Data on discharge summaries should be entered and approved by the attending physician. Approved discharge summaries within two weeks after patient's discharge should be over 95%. We inspected and checked the summaries and, where required, gave some advice for correct input.

2. Maintenance of disease codes based on ICD-10

3. Analysis of medical contents on DPC (Diagnostic Procedure Combination) and recommendation for efficiency

Future prospects

 Our goal is to make recommendations and proposals of good and effective medical care based on DPC data. Each clinical department has held an annual "DPC round" to make quality control and quality assurance for each medical practice.
