Direct admissions are patients who are accepted from another site (within region or from out-of-town) and come directly to the next site.
These patients can go straight to the accepting ward at the second site, or they can be admitted via the ER.
Collection Instruction
- There are two types of Direct admits:
- already an Inpatient - the Pre-admit Inpatient Institution and the Previous Location will be the same
- not an Inpatient - the Pre-admit Inpatient Institution would be not applicable and the Previous Location would be their last physical location e.g. Thompson ER
- The Visit Admit DtTm field and the first Service tmp entry will be the same
- The COGNOS service time is often later than the Visit Admit DtTm field so the first Service tmp entry must be changed to = Visit Admit DtTm field
- For First Boarding Loc with the same date/time as the first Service tmp entry
- if via ER, enter own <site>_ER for first Boarding Loc
- if direct to Ward, enter own <site> physical location for first Boarding Loc
