I do better with reading than listening and I read faster than the narration, so it was slow for me
It seemed overly simplified, basic knowledge for the most part. Maybe examples of just how complex it actually is to clean up these type errors would be helpful, most employees have no clue.
This was a very insightful course it gave a more in depth look at how important registration is from the beginning to end of a patient care experience.

Great user-friendly platform and course content.
I learned some things, which actually surprised me. I loved the true life stories, too!
Very good informative course
I wish we could use this at our hospital to train the entire PFS/Registration and nursing staff on proper patient identity verification
IMPORTANT INFORMATION LEARNED
I thought it was a good refresher course.
This was excellent information for new employees and great detailed review/reminders for established employees. Included information that I did not know.
The course was well designed and interactive.
