Generally the discharge date/time is when the person left AMA, or was noted to be gone and assumed AMA. If a bed is "held" and the patient indeed returns, goes back into that bed without being readmitted (because the bed was held), then this isn't to be considered to be an AMA.

{{DA|In terms of avoidable bed days, they often hold the bed for a day, as you said, but if the patient does not return, would we not want this in the avoidable bed days? Therefore the dispo date and time would be when the bed is given up? I believe EPR already uses this as their dispo date and time [[User:Lkaita|Lisa Kaita]] 08:04, 2022 April 29 (CDT)

* if did not return, I think we should consider the holding of bed as transfer delay. The bed should have been given to new patient from the dttm the bed was put on hold. I agree that dispo is when the bed was given up. --[[User:JMojica|JMojica]] 16:12, 2022 April 29 (CDT) }}
