In your normal image entry process, you must always pay careful attention to the accuracy of the ICR data. You will need to do the same here. It is possible that the new pages contain ICR errors that you will need to correct during entry. In particular, it is important that you correct any key fields (visit and/or subject numbers) that may have been misread as these are critical to the identification and storage of the data. Note that the ICR data records on your screen may not match exactly those shown in the examples throughout this module. |
