A center can demonstrate how an administrative readiness card and an equipment or supply check relate to a scheduled case. CMS publishes the Ambulatory Surgical Center Quality Reporting program. Use a closed training room and a tabletop task with no clinical procedures. CMS Ambulatory Surgical Center Quality Reporting

Film consenting staff placing inert labeled props into a mock supply bin. Give one clip a matching readiness card and another a card for a different case. Ask the model to identify observed items and the separate signed review record. Score visibility and record linkage without judging whether a real procedure can proceed.

Exclude patients, instruments in use, real case lists, staff credentials and medical device details. Confirm employer, location and performer permissions.

Describe a staged readiness sample

Original Fiund exercise

Observed prop placement and a signed readiness card need an exact case link

An adult-only tabletop task uses inert labeled blocks in a closed training room. It contains no patient, procedure, clinical instrument, medical-device setting or real case list.

Fictional records supplied to the evaluator
RecordSourceWhat it records
ACR1Clip A annotationMock case K1: consenting performer places inert blocks BLUE and WHITE in bin B1. Both labels and final positions visible.
ACR2Signed practice reviewReadiness card names K1/B1 and explicitly reviews those two prop placements. No judgment about an actual procedure.
ACR3Clip B and loose cardMock case K2: BLUE label occluded. Attached signed card names K3/B3, with no K2 relationship.

Question for the model

Which clip has both visible item evidence and a matching signed review, and what remains unresolved for B?

Show the reference answer and checks

ACR1 documents the two visible prop placements, and ACR2 matches their K1/B1 case and bin references. ACR3 has two distinct gaps: BLUE's label is occluded in the K2 clip, and the attached signed card belongs to K3/B3. A signature alone cannot resolve either mismatch. Report observed actions and administrative review separately without declaring any real clinical case ready to proceed.

  • Accepting any signed readiness card without matching the case and bin.
  • Claiming a hidden prop label was observed or treating a tabletop check as clinical authorization.

Fields to preserve

Mock case and bin ID
Defines the linkage.
Item label, visibility and placement time
Supports the observed action.
Reviewer card target and sign-off scope
Separates review evidence from appearance.

Test another case

Add a readable second angle for K2 while retaining the K3 card. Require the visibility gap to close while sign-off remains unmatched.

Use inert props and consenting adults with employer and location approval. Exclude credentials, patients and real schedules; no procedure or readiness decision is performed.
