Hospital D uses an electronic system (application) to record
events or incidents occurring within the hospital system.
Currently, 40% of the events reported in the system need to be
revised due to inaccurate initial categorization, which doubles the
amount of work related to this function. Furthermore, additional
notes from a prior internal interview of nurses indicate that
between 40-50% of the incidents that occur are not being reported
in the system at all because of misperceptions of what constitutes
patient harm.
Explain potential consequences of non-reporting or
improper reporting of events in terms of compliance, patient
safety, and productivity/efficiency aspects. Use the textbook and
DHHS report as one of the resources. In addition, use a
peer-reviewed article to support your answer
