4.8.6 Summary of Errors
At the bottom on the Coding Comparison screen there is a summary of the errors identified. The
Summary calculates the total errors and reasons for error for all coding differences for the
episode.
TOTAL CODING LOGS is the total number of log boxes that were displayed on entry into the
Coding Comparison screen. This figure will not change when an Error Log is marked as not
required.
TOTAL CODING ERRORS is the number of Error Logs that have been completed. The totals in
the summary fields will be updated as you complete each Error Log. The sum of the figures in
‘Type of Error’ and ‘Reason for Error’ will not match the figure for ‘Total Coding Logs’ until all
logs have been completed and will not match if one or more Error Logs have been marked as not
required.
In the screen shot above there are still two Error Log boxes to be completed – for procedures
95550-02 and 95550-01 which are additional procedures included by the auditor, so Total Coding
Errors in the summary shows 2 compared to Total Coding Logs of 4.
