This is a good one we can all ponder for a few days.  I am doing
compliance work for a clinic and they place yellow dots on charts to
signify suspected drug abuse.  They never document in the chart such
suspicions.  

Questions:

Does this have to be documented?
If documented do we have to allow a patient to access and request
amendment?
What problems will this cause if they keep the same procedure?
