Retired as per [[Task Team Meeting - Rolling Agenda and Minutes 2019#ICU Database Task Group Meeting – August 28, 2019 |August 28, 2019 Task meeting]] because the same concept "[[Homeless]]" is collected in [[Pre acute living situation]].

Possible re-instatement discussed at [[Task Team Meeting - Rolling Agenda and Minutes 2025#ICU Database Task Group Meeting – May 14, 2025]], additional meetings planned.

== Additional Info ==

'''When this code is used, also make sure related instructions from [[Homeless]] are followed. '''

*This code can be used as [[Dx_Type]] as follows:

**[[Comorbid Diagnosis]] -- use it this way if they were homeless prior to this hospitalization

**[[Acquired Diagnosis / Complication]] -- use it this way if they were NOT homeless prior to this hospitalization but somehow BECAME homeless while in the hospital.

*But this code should never be used as an [[Admit Diagnosis]] -- homelessness ALONE is really never the reason for admission. If it '''seems''' that their homelessness was part of the reason for admission, instead code the actual problems they have that makes it such that a homeless person has to be in hospital (e.g. frostbite, non-healing wound, etc)

~~== Alternate ICD10s to consider coding instead ==~~

~~(turn these into links to the actual diagnosis articles if possible. For some that might make no sense.)~~
