...By reducing the time and cost for long distance communication, the invention of the Morse Code and Telegraph made an easier way for the appearance of large and efficient markets. The invention also provided an important method by which large firms could efficiently coordinate a variety of activities previously coordinated by markets. Before the invention of the Morse Code and Telegraph, communication was only to be through people. Although this method took lots of time, due to the travel distances, it was not very effective. The allotted time it took one to deliver a message prohibited the free exchange of information that the markets nationwide needed. After the invention, it took no time for one’s messages to get across, even if it was with...

...medical coding, physicians and payer fees are related to the compliance process will be discussed. It is very important that procedures and diagnosis are correctly linked together. There are certain steps to follow that help to correctly link the procedure to the diagnoses. By following the correct procedures to apply the correct codes that link procedure with diagnosis, insurance companies can be correctly billed for reimbursements. Correctly connected claims can be analyzed and to make sure charges are for medically necessary services provided to the patient. Correct claims help reduce the chance of an investigation of the practice of fraud and the risk of liability in an investigation does occur. (Valerius, J., Bayes, N., Newby, C., & Seggern, J. , 2008). If the procedures are not linked correctly to the diagnoses, then they will not be covered by the insurance company and therefor will not be paid. The major implication of incorrect medical coding would be fraud. Even though incorrect work may simply be an error, it may also represent a deliberate attempt to obtain fraudulent payment. Some compliance errors can be a result of incorrect code selections or billing practices, while other errors are related to medical necessity. Errors also result in non-payment of services performed on patient. Some errors in the coding process would be; truncated coding- using diagnosis cods are not as specific as possible, mismatching between gender or age of...

...Introduction Coding specialists have a powerful effect on healthcare organizations by providing significant coding abilities. Having the abilities to apply accurate codes can create an impact on hospital reimbursement and patient care. Therefore, as the coding supervisor of the University Hospital, I have been asked to merge the inpatient coding specialist job and outpatient coding specialist job into one job position. During this process, I am going to create a new job title and select two job analysis tools on collected data within the two current positions. Creative Job Title: Registered Coding Specialist III Explanation of New Job Title After some research, I have decided on the new job title name to be called, “Registered Coding Specialist III”. As you can see, I decided to remove inpatient and outpatient from the job title and replaced it with “registered” and added “III” to the end. Personally, I feel that the word “registered” provides the meaning of an employee having a higher level of certified knowledge. Therefore, this new job position will require the employees to expand on their knowledge for both inpatient and outpatient coding....

...HAND TEST DR. EDWARD E. WAGNER HISTORICAL DEVELOPMENT • The first scientific attempts in relating the hand to personality developed out of the study of the body types (asthenic/thin; atheletic/ muscular; pyknic/ stocky) by Ernst Kretschmer in 1931. o BODY TYPES--- TRAITS( PSYCHOPATHOLOGIES ▪ PYKNIC: friendly ( depressive ▪ ASTHENIC: timid, introverted ( schizophrenic • Charlotte Wolff (1943) studied certain characteristics of the hand and handedness and derived a practical method of the hand interpretation based on the studied characteristic. o The Hand in Psychological Diagnosis (1951) considers the significance of endocrinological dysfunction, its psychological effects and chirological manifestations & outlines how and why the hand reflects temperament and personality. • The first empirical research was a report by Carmichael, Roberts and Wessell (1937) which showed that , to some degree, emotions can be encoded in and decoded from dynamic body movements, gait, and manual gestures. • The Hand Test was originated by E. Wagner in 1958 and was primarily used to differentiate normal from schizophrenic. • In 1962, Bricklin Protowski and Wagner published a monograph with an initial rationale and scoring for the Hand Test. THEORETICAL FRAMEWORK • Hand Test was developed to meet the general criteria for a projective test and also to be easily classified for empirical examination ...
