Hospices are palliative/end-of-life care facilities, relevant to the program as admit/discharge locations

If a patient is admitted from or discharged to a hospice, code this as

  • admit from / discharge to : Hospice Care Center (ZH)
  • var 1/2:
    • GH - Grace Hospice
    • JH - Jocelyn House
    • BH - Brummitt-Feasby ALS House
      • Question I have a patient discharge to Grace Hospice from Victoria ward so I code ZH as my discharge location but the laptop wont let me put GH in var1/2 due to it states "must be local" so shouldnt GH JH BH be added to the location discharge to site ? so you can capture which hospice the pt goes to unless you are not collecting that specific type of detailed information.
