of the 5352 request for medical records,4257 were located within 20 minutes established by supervisor, what is the rat of compliance in answering request for records?
100(4257/5352) = _______ %
To calculate the rate of compliance in answering requests for records, we need to divide the number of requests that were located within 20 minutes by the total number of requests and then multiply the result by 100 to get a percentage.
In this case, the number of requests located within 20 minutes is given as 4257, and the total number of requests is given as 5352.
So, the rate of compliance can be calculated as follows:
Rate of Compliance = (Number of Requests Located within 20 minutes / Total Number of Requests) * 100
Rate of Compliance = (4257 / 5352) * 100
Now, let's calculate this:
Rate of Compliance = (0.79531) * 100
Rate of Compliance = 79.531
Therefore, the rate of compliance in answering requests for records is approximately 79.53%.
