Operative codes provide a readily retrievable record of operative procedures and interventions and are invaluable in performance of clinical audit and research. In most hospitals, coding is performed by coding clerks who depend on legible complete operative notes for coding. In others, coding is by the operator/surgeon. The aim of this audit was to determine the impact of hand-written and typed operative notes on accuracy of coding as well as deciding if the operator is the better coder.
