Definition of when a delay has occurred

For the purpose of these diagnosis codes we define a Transfer Delay as having occurred if the Dispo DtTm is not on the same day as the Transfer Ready date and time. For example, if patient was transfer ready on Tuesday, but left on Wednesday or thereafter, use one of the codes in Category:Awaiting/delayed transfer.

Possible reasons for delay that we can actually code

• Physical rehabilitation care
• Palliative care
• Respite care
• Homelessness
• Problem related to unspecified psychosocial circumstances
• Medical Assistance In Dying

if the transfer ready DtTm is not the same as the Dispo DtTm, should the data collectors ALWAYS include one of these five awaiting delay/transfer reasons and/or any of the OTHER reasons listed here: #Possible_reasons_for_delay_that_we_can_actually_code. Don't think the collectors know this yet....-- Trish & JMojica 17:01, 2018 December 24 (CST) As discussed w Allan: the pt could deteriorate. then we would keep the tr date but lose the awaiting code. If the awaiting is rescinded, e.g. patient gets sicker and decision to send person elsewhere is stopped, then remove the waiting. Then this cross check doesn't make sense.
