Bed Size: $300-$bed facility, with a variety of services

Downtime: $1$ hour per day $($two $15$ minute breaks and one $30$ minute non coding period$)$

Time Standard: $4$ records per hour $($or one every $15$ minutes$)$ excluding obstetrics and newborns which take less time

Work Day: Coder works an $8-$hour shift with $30$ minutes for lunch or $8\mathrm{.}5$ hours total

$1)$ Total productive hours available: $\_\_\_\_$ hours per day or $\_\_\_\_$ hours per week

$2)$ Total records to be coded: $\_\_\_\_$ x $\_\_\_\_\_=\_\_\_\_\_\_$ records per day or $\_\_\_\_\_\_$ records a week

$3)$ Actual records coded: $135$

$4)$ Coder individual productivity: $135/\_\_\_\_\_\_\_=\_\_\_\_\_\_\%($percent$)-$ productivity rate for the week

$(135$ records divided by expected hours XXX equals a percentage rate for the week$)$
