A cardiology referral was scheduled last week. Which MA action best closes the care coordination loop?

A cardiology referral was scheduled last week. Which action best closes the care coordination loop? Referral tracking is a core CCMA Patient Care Coordination competency and a practical SEO topic for clinic workflows. Read the wording and clinical context closely; those details determine the NHA CCMA competency being tested.

This question asks how to close the loop. Confirm the appointment occurred and that results returned to the chart. Scheduling alone is not enough if reports never come back. Build a habit: ordered → scheduled → attended → results filed → provider notified. For closing the loop on specialty referral, write the rule beside a counterexample so the distinction stays clear on later questions. Review that contrast aloud before you continue. Use it to guide your next timed attempt.
