***patient is made '''[[ACP C|ACP-C]]'''

***BUT in the absence of some clear indication (a discharge order, or a progress note, or one of the 2 items immediately above), do NOT try to guess at the transfer ready timing. For example, if there is no such order, and no note saying that the patient was ready to leave, but the patient was discharged, in this case assign the transfer ready timing as the actual discharge timing.

== Use of Transfer Ready Date and Time ==

* The purpose is to determine the amount of time the patient is occupying a bed in an ICU or an IICU or a High Observation ward or a regular ward setting when the patient is no longer needing that level of care (also refer as wasted bed) from the transfer order date time until the discharge date time.

See [[Transfer Delay#Use]]

* if the patient moves to various locations, the '''first''' transfer ready date time from the '''same''' level of care will be used.

** For example, a Med patient stays in high obs bed and then move to regular ward bed and then another regular ward bed. There are two levels of care - one for high obs and another which is lower, for the regular ward. At least two transfer ready dttm intent are expected here - first intent for high obs ready to go to a regular ward and the second intent is from a regular ward to be discharged to another lower level of care or home or PCH. Assuming that there are transfer orders both at regular ward 1 and regular ward2 and both are with same level of care, the first transfer date time will be used in calculating the wasted bed for that lower level of care. There will be another wasted bed to be calculated for the high Obs level of care from the time of transfer order to the time the patient left the high obs bed. The sum of the two scenarios will be the total wasted bed for that patient.

** if the Med patient stays in more than one regular wards (or boarding location) or a CC patient stays in more than one ICU location (or boarding ICU location), all locations are considered with the same level of care, the wasted bed is calculated from the first transfer ready dttm until dispo dttm.
