****OK, to clarify........a patient discharged as STB EMIP returning to VIC ER and cared for under ER physican/service until Medicine consulted and accepts patient....the most recent Previous Service caring for the patient in the example is Emergency Medicine not Medicine? Or is this wrong? Thanks, [[User:Ppiche|Pamela Piche]] 11:36, 2016 May 24 (CDT)

****The case of VIC EMIP to STB EMIP to VIC ER to VIC Ward is a bit tricky because both VIC EMIP and STB EMIP signify being an inpatient under Medicine service before going to VIC ER.  WIKI defines Previous Service as the "originating service" for those patient's who where already in a prior inpatient location. It would be easier to define the previous service if this is a case of direct transfer to VIC Medicine service and parked only in VIC ER. This is a good question - which to use, Emergency Medicine or Medicine?  Since it is known that there is  prior inpatient service,  I am more on the second one 'Medicine'.  This can be a similar case when the previous location is Operating or Recovery and  the responsible surgical service is coded as previous service. If coming from home to another ER to own ER to own Ward, then previous service is clearly Emergency medicine.  Let us discuss, any suggestions/thoughts by anyone?
