A [[palliative patient]] will have a "diagnosis" of Palliative Service if the patient is either under the care of Palliative Service Team or that this Service has been consulted. We code '''Palliative Service''' as a diagnosis because we did not have a reasonable alternative way to code it when we started to collect it.

See [[Comfort Care]] for collection instructions on that care goal.

*ADMIT slots:

**only if the patient has been ~~previously enrolled in palliative care~~ service ~~and they are involved in their care.~~

**only if the patient is either under the care of Palliative Service Team or that this Service has been consulted, ''even if the patient was not accepted to that service''

*COMPLICATION slots:

**only if there is an actual "consultation" for Palliative Services ~~AFTER~~ ward admission.

**only if there is an actual '''consultation''' for Palliative Services '''''after''''' ward admission ''even if the patient was not accepted to that service''

== Related data ==

The diagnosis code Palliative Service is related to, '''but not the same as''' a patient having [[ACP-C]] or [[Comfort Care]] orders, but you might be able to code [[Comfort Care]] in that circumstance.

==~~NOTE: change in collection process~~==

== Legacy info ==

*If patient care goal at the start of a Med or ICU unit admission as per physicians admitting note is palliation, comfort care, ACP-C and the patient is not under the care of Palliative Service, then go to: [[~~Comfort Care | ACP C, or Comfort Care~~]] ~~for further collection instructions.~~

see [[palliative patient]]

*If patient becomes ACP C, or Comfort Care ~~'''AFTER ward admission''' by the attending physician or resident, you '''cannot code''' Palliative Service in complications anymore, unless the Palliative Care Service is consulted.~~
