Hospital previous

In the Hospital Previous data entry field in the CCMDB.mdb registry screen, a number code must be entered if a patient is admitted from a hospital outside the city of Winnipeg.

• If a patients is marked as Admit From X* or Y*.
• X* indicates outside of city
• Y* indicates outside of province.
  • Please use the hospital previous number codes as provided in the Access drop down list (S_HospitalCodes).
  • There are codes for all Manitoba hospitals. If one appears to be missing, contact Trish Ostryzniuk to find out if a different one should be used or if a new one needs to be added to the list.
  • In addition to the Manitoba hospital number codes there are codes that can be use for patient who are admitted from outside of the province, country or continent.

Possible values for the Hospital Previous field are stored in S_HospitalCodes.

• NOTE: *On the Registry data collection screen this field is referred to as Hospital Prev, however the CCMDB.mdb table that it draws data from is called: S_HospitalCodes.

Admission from ER at other hospitals

• If a patient comes from another hospital for example from Gimli ER, then the pt goes to the ER at your hospital, and Medicine has accepted the patient as a direct admission- you put "admitted from XE". If the intention was to directly admit from the sending facility, then in the tmp file put in the move time to the ward. At the bottom of the tmp file put "parked in ER".

Data integrity check on sending

• If you forget to enter a hospital previous code when X* or Y* are coded as "admit from", you will get an error message in ACCESS and will be unable to send your files the the regional server.
