This question refers to the "Claims Processing" case. A hospital processes claims and
the insurance companies often reject them for coding errors. A Six Sigma team has
been working on a project to reduce coding errors for the past 15 months and the data
for the number and type of coding errors can be downloaded above in the
"ClaimCoding" file. Use this data to answer the question below.
Assuming that each claim has 20 opportunities for errors, what is the sigma level for
coding errors in months 1 and 15?

a. Month 1=4.7 sigma level, Month 15 = 3.3
b. Month 1=3.0 sigma level, Month 15 = 2.7
c. Month 1=4.7 sigma level, Month 15 = 3.7
d. Month 1=3.0 sigma level, Month 15 = 3.8
e. Month 1=3.0 sigma level, Month 15 = 3.3 - Answer-Answer E

M1 DPMO=(868x1,000,000)/(716X20); M15 PMO=(605x1,000,000)/(788X20). See
