What information does the Composite Health Care System (CHCS) record when using the check-in record option?

The Composite Health Care System (CHCS) is designed to streamline health care operations and improve the management of patient information. When using the check-in record option, one of the key pieces of information recorded is the date and time of the record being returned. This function is crucial for tracking patient flow and ensuring that all encounters are accurately documented in real-time.

Recording the date and time allows health care providers to maintain accurate schedules, monitor patient wait times, and improve the efficiency of services delivered within health facilities. It also plays an essential role in medical record-keeping, helping ensure compliance with regulations and enhancing the continuity of care by providing a clear timeline of patient interactions.

In contrast, other options such as the patient's medical history, provider's notes, and billing information are not the primary focus of the check-in record option. These elements are important in their own rights but are typically documented and handled in different sections of the system, ensuring a comprehensive view of a patient's health journey and financial obligations are maintained appropriately elsewhere in CHCS.
