1. Begin by reading and analyzing the information provided in the case study. Referring
to the information provided in the tables, consider which parts (error, coder, and MS-
DRG) should be focused on more than others.
2. Include an ongoing review and monitoring schedule for the next year. The details
included in the schedule are listed in the instructions. You may use any format to
present it, such as a narrative document (Word file) or spreadsheet document (Excel
file), or a combination of both. You may add graphics, tables, project management
tools (GANTT or PERT chart) to make it effective, efficient, and reasonable.
Consider the factors of human resources, budget, training, information, etc. You may
find a calendar or timeline to be helpful.
3. How will you reward? There is no standard answer to this question. Substantiate your
reasons, and make sure the reward is reasonable and within budget. If the reward is
high, do you have enough money?
