Med Records at GRA
Thanks to physical distancing, there is limited space to work in Medical Records. Conference Room E is not only being used as a meeting room, but it is also being used as a break room by the MR staff, and as a work space for physicians, medical examiners, and staff with the organ and tissue donation programs. The cubicles along the wall have also been limited to 2 work spaces to allow for physical distancing.
Kim in Medical Records has graciously allowed us to remove the necessary charts to bring them back to our office for data entry. She has our contact information and is welcome to call us in the event they require a chart we are working on. Mindy has brought from home 2 collapsible carts that she has generously shared them with the Data Collectors here to allow us to comfortably retrieve a large number of charts to work on throughout the day.

Requesting charts
Grace Hospital has the most accommodating Health Records Department possible; collectors are permitted to pull our own charts prn for use in the Health Records Dept., but are expected to return them from whence they came as well. If you need to remove a chart from the dept, please report so to one of the clerks so it can be accounted for in their system. If you are unable to find a chart it will usually turn up within 24 hours, as it has just gone visiting to Home Care or AMC etc., however longer than that requires that you check with one of the clerks as to its whereabouts. Charts have been known to go missing and never be seen again.....
