To monitor a binary process, exponentially weighted moving average (EWMA) control charts in different variations are proposed. The average run length performance of the EWMA approach both with standard and with skewness‐corrected 3‐ σ control limits is investigated and design recommendations are derived. The proposed EWMA control charts are applied to medical diagnosis data taken from the diagnostic expert system S ONO C ONSULT in order to provide a semi‐automatic component for monitoring the documentation behavior of different examiners.
