A processing device in a memory sub-system detects an occurrence of a triggering event, determines respective levels of charge loss associated with a first representative wordline of a block of a memory device and with a second representative wordline of the block of the memory device, and determines whether a difference between the respective levels of charge loss satisfies a threshold criterion. Responsive to determining that the difference between the respective levels of charge loss satisfies the threshold criterion, the processing device further determines that the block is in a uniform charge loss state.
