** 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If the awaiting is rescinded, e.g. patient gets sicker and decision to send person elsewhere is stopped, then remove the waiting.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.
*AG REPLY --- this can become very complex and so we decided that:
**(a) if 1st transfer ready is 1 or more calendar days before dispoDtTM, then to not only record that transf ready DtTM but also record the appropriate Awaiting ICD10 code;
**(b) IF the transfer is cancelled do NOT remove either the orig transfer ready DtTM or the Awaiting code,
**(c) if during the wait to leave, the location to which the planned transfer changes, then add the additional Awaiting code, thus can have >1 Awaiting code in this situation,
**(d) have a check that whenever 1st transfer ready is 1 or more calendar days before dispoDtTM, that there should be at least 1 Awaiting code also.}}

Guidelines for the use of "awaiting" codes

How much of a delay is required before we code "awaiting"?

Code awaiting if Dispo DtTm is not on the same calendar day as the Transfer Ready date and time. We realize this is different from Transfer Delay. 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.

status changes and is no longer awaiting

If the transfer is cancelled do NOT remove the "awaiting" code.

status changes and is awaiting different destination

If during the wait to leave, the location to which the planned transfer changes, then add the additional Awaiting code, thus can have >1 Awaiting code in this situation.

awaiting ambiguous locations

See Care levels in the community.

Possible reasons for delay that we can actually code


have a check that whenever 1st transfer ready is 1 or more calendar days before dispoDtTM, that there should be at least 1 Awaiting code also.
