Medical Assistance In Dying ('''MAID''') is a program that allows terminally ill patients to access the assistance of a physician to control the time and circumstances of their death. See links under [[#Program Details]] for more info.
 
See [[Deceased patients#General instructions for deceased patients]] and [[Guideline for coding organ donation after death]].
 
=== Collection Instructions for MAID ===
* Do not code this if the patient simply has a MAID consult, even if they agree to have MAID in the near future. Code it only once the assistance has been provided
 
* Code this for patients who are admitted to your ward/unit and either:
** receive this assistance on the ward/unit
** receive MAID after being moved somewhere else the same way we would consider other [[Visits to temporary locations]] - ie since they die at that location, code [[Dispo]] as the appropriate "Died - ..." option ; collecting it this way will ensure that sites like STB that don't allow this on site will be reflected in our data the same way as other sites that provide this onsite.

{{Discuss | who = Julie | question = * When we started out this dx used code U23, but then as of 2018-07-17 ICD10 actually added a code for this so we changed ours to that code. I don't really think we are interested in keeping that very early test data, so this comment can probably just go, and we can delete them. I am removing the code from our s_ICD10 table. }}
