Define and explain the purpose of color coding
Color coding is the assignment of color to primary (and, in some cases, secondary) patient numbers or letters used for filing patient records. Color bars are placed on the sides/edges of file folders so that when filed, all records with the same primary (and secondary) numbers have the same color pattern. The purpose of color coding is to identify misfiles easily.
