        Excerpt from Dr. [Cecil?] Sheps "In Brief" on expiditing documentation procedures for the admission of private patients
        US AA088.S007.SS002.F112.I001 · Item · 1967-05-24
        Part of Mount Sinai Beth Israel records

        Text reads: "4. Expediting Documentation Procedures for the Admission of Private Patients - The documentation necessary for the admission of patients has become increasingly complicated because of new legislation and also to meet the medical needs of patients. To expedite the admission of private patients, our admissions procedures and forms have been reviewed and revised."

        "The admitting process would be facilitated if some of the necessary forms could be completed in your offices by your respective assistants and if certain other pertinent information such as laboratory, x-ray forms, antepartum forms, etc., could be forwarded directly to the admitting office prior to the patient's arrival."

        "To implement this program, we plan to invite your assistants to visit the hospital for a few hours so that we may familiarize them with the details of the procedure, with the use of necessary materials, and with people in the hospital whom they may have occasion to contact directly. We hope that all the invited staff members will make arrangements to send a representative. The program will begin with the Ob-Gyn staff in June and will later be extended to other sections of the Medical Staff."

        "I want to thank you in advance for your cooperation in this effort."

        "(from Dr. Shep's IN BRIEF dated May 24.67. #7 Vol 11"
