Your answer is correct. Lucy's testimony in the court hearing is considered testimonial evidence. Testimonial evidence refers to statements made by witnesses under oath, based on their personal knowledge and experience, regarding the facts and issues of a case. In this case, Lucy's testimony is relevant because she has personal knowledge about the content of the operative report, as she read it and assigned the codes. This makes her a reliable source of information regarding the coding of the report, and her testimony can help the court understand the medical coding process and the content of the report. Well done!
