*Question Do you code Palliative service if the CTUS4 team consults them ,they answer the consult  and makes an assessment and then tells the team the patient does not meet the criteria to be placed on the palliative service. Or do you have to be accepted on the palliative service to enter this code?Just to clarify Thanks !! Or can it be both? Are you wanting data who is accepted into the program or just being consulted with suggestions.????

Go to: [[Comfort Care]] for collection instructions on that care goal.   
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.
