Tracy works in the billing and coding department of a busy outpatient clinic. She receives a phone call from an irate patient who claims he was overcharged by $246.73 for a recent procedure. Tracy could not immediately find the patient's record, so she followed the problem-solving steps and implemented what she considered to be the best solution: tell the patient that she would look into it and call the patient back.

Place the patient on hold for 30 minutes while she looks up the records. D. Repeat the steps of the problem-solving process to find another solution. E.
