In complex surgical cases, the coded record is only as complete as the note it started from.
Orthopedic and surgical inpatient care is high-acuity, and a comorbidity, complication, or procedure detail that is missing at sign-off often becomes a query later, on the charts that already take the most effort to resolve. InstaNote CDR reviews the surgical draft before the surgeon signs, so the record reaches coding more complete. The surgeon reviews and confirms every note.
