When looking for errors, ResiCAT compares codes in the same line and against all codes in the opposing column. Codes must be an exact match, otherwise they will be treated as separate codes and highlighted as described in the section above. When a code highlighted in yellow (hospital code with no match in auditor’s column) appears in the same line as a code highlighted in blue (audit code with no match in hospital’s codes) two Error Log boxes will be displayed. Whenever double logs are displayed, the auditor must determine whether one or two errors are involved.

Following is a series of screen shots which demonstrate possible combinations and the significance of single and double Error Log boxes.

i) Same codes, principal diagnosis the same but additional diagnoses in different sequence = No errors. No Error Log boxes.

ii) Same codes, principal diagnosis different = One error (incorrect principal diagnosis). Auditor’s principal diagnosis highlighted in red, corresponding code in Hospital column also highlighted in red. One Error Log box, displayed alongside Auditor’s principal diagnosis.
