Summarize how a manual MPI is maintained


A manual MPI requires the typing or hand-posting of patient identification information on preprinted index cards. MPI cards are housed in a vertical file, with one card generated for each patient. When a patient returns to the facility, the MPI card is retrieved and reviewed to verify demographic information and update the card with new admission information. File guides help users quickly locate MPI cards by dividing the filing system into smaller subdivisions.
