Health records professionals are up in arms over a recent change by the Trump Administration in how to report COVID-19 data.
CNN reports public health advisers to the US government said in a letter that they are 'extremely concerned' and 'troubled' by the change in procedure.
The letter described hospitals as 'scrambling' to determine how to meet new daily COVID-19 reporting requirements to the DHHS.
The authors added retiring the older system jeopardized data integrity.
One doctor said the new system was marred by inconsistencies, rendering it 'almost impossible' to use for real-time decisions during the pandemic.
