There is a large amount of documentation available for use in accreditation inspections, which is why it is so important. Nonetheless, the majority of laboratories struggle to efficiently handle the organization, storage, and documentation procedures. This study aimed to assist in the development of a standardized document management system that is both strategically effective and long-lasting.The document list data obtained from three major university hospitals was compared in order to modify a document code formatting system. To create document classifications and a standard coding scheme, a questionnaire about standardizing document codes was also created and distributed to 268 institutes. A system for managing documents digitally was created. All hospital laboratories may use our documentation system as a model for standardizing documents and developing a document management system.
