Chart number is the number assigned to a patient by Admitting. This is done once the patient has been seen by Triage in ER or new to the hospital for clinics, testing and various workups. This number remains the patient's chart number for all hospital visits, admissions, tests, etc. It is unique to that patient.
EXCEPTION: Patient is admitted as an unknown "Pt Doe". They are given a new chart number. After discharge the old records will be "married" to the new ones.--CMarks 12:43, 5 August 2011 (CDT)
