In the “Sections of the Policy and Procedure Manual” in Chapter 3, you learned that these manuals can include information on:

Topics related to HIPAA compliance
Federal and state labor laws
Equal Employment Opportunity laws
Information on the Americans with Disabilities Act
Information on the Family and Medical Leave Act
Workers’ compensation laws
Occupational Safety and Health Administration regulations
Standards of conduct—everything from ethical behavior to dress codes
Compensation—benefits, overtime pay, performance reviews, sick time, vacations
Observed holidays
Attendance—work hours, disciplinary actions associated with call-offs and tardiness
Leave of absence policies
Termination and resignation procedures
Job descriptions—scope of responsibilities

Choose a topic from this list and research it. Then write a page for inclusion in your office’s policy and procedure manual that’s similar to the format of the page that we provided as an example.
You can use your textbook and the Internet to complete your research. If you aren’t currently working in a medical office, then write it for a type of medical office where you’d like to work, such as a primary care physician’s practice or a pediatrician’s office.
Type your answer into a Microsoft Word document or a Notepad document. Be sure to save your file using this naming protocol: lastname_firstinitial_Assignment13. So if your last name is Jones and your first name is Wanda, you would name your file Jones_W_Assignment13. Then use the “Browse” button below to locate the file on your computer and the “Upload this file” button to send it to your facilitator.
Once you submit your assignment, your facilitator will receive a notification, review your work, and assign you a grade. If you have any questions, please contact your facilitator.
