The patient is assigned a number at the time of the first encounter, and a different
number for all subsequent encounters. The records for each encounter are filed
together under the number for that visit.
While this may be an easy system to implement, there are disadvantages to serial
numbering. Supply costs are high, as each new visit requires a new folder, and each
record is filed in a different location. Retrieval of records from previous visits is time
consuming and each record is located in a different place, which does not benefit
patient care. - Answer-Serial numbering
The patient is assigned a number at the time of the first encounter and keeps the same
number for all subsequent encounters. All records are located under this one unique
number.
Benefits include the convenience of having all the patient's records in one place, lower
supply costs, as fewer folders are used, and reduced labor costs, since only one
number is entered and tracked into the master person index.
The disadvantage to a unit numbering system is that the patient must be identified each
time as a returning patient so that the unit number may be reassigned. Otherwise, a
new number will be assigned, and if the error is not detected, all records will not be filed
under one number. - Answer-Unit numbering
The patient is assigned a number at the time of the first encounter, and a different
number for all subsequent encounters, like the unit numbering system. The records
from previous encounters are brought forward to be filed under the most recent number
assigned. All records are then located under the new number, like the unit numbering
system.
,The benefit of this numbering system is that eventually all records are housed together
in the same location, but the disadvantage is increased labor costs associated with
pulling old records forward and shifting folders to accommodate all folders from previous
encounters. - Answer-Serial-unit numbering
