FORMS REQUIRED FOR ITRs
a. The forms and reports filed in an Inpatient Treatment Record (ITR) depend on the
nature of the case and the treatment given. All forms and reports needed for a case must
be included in the ITR.
b. DA Form 3647, Inpatient Treatment Record Cover Sheet (ITRCS), is initiated in
the admitting office. When the patient is discharged, the attending physician will complete
the "worksheet" and prepare SF 502, Narrative Summary. He will then send the completed
"worksheet" to the Patient Administration Division (PAD) where the information is keyed
into the computer in final form. Two copies of the Inpatient Treatment Record Cover Sheet
(ITRCS) must be prepared for each hospitalization and included in all ITRs. Details about
the use of the Inpatient Treatment Record Cover Sheet are given in lesson 3 of this
subcourse.
