Document a reason for the error in a location as close to the original documentation as possible (for example, "entry made in error" or "entry made in wrong chart"). Enter the correct information as close to the original information as possible. If the length of information to be newly entered prohibits this, enter the correct information in the next available space in the record and reference the original entry.
