Avoid Medical Records suspensions!

Physicians are responsible for notifying the Medical Records Department when they will be away. If not, suspension days will accrue!

Hint: Be sure to complete all records prior to leaving on vacation and, while in the Medical Records Department, notify the staff that you will be away.
