**I have just come across a patient who was admitted under family medicine, but while in the ER deteriorated, and ended up being admitted to the MICU. I am not sure what to enter for [[Previous Location field]]/[[Pre-admit Inpatient Institution field]]. If I enter EMIP, then it requires the previous service to be medicine, instead of family medicine. Should I ignore the initial acceptance to family medicine, and just code this patient as an ER admission? If this is the case, then my temp studies for accept dt/source will be a little bit complicated. Please advise!

*** If they were admitted to Family Medicine, but never to a service where we collect, they were not an EMIP, because never a medical patient. The '''[[Previous Location field]]''' would be the physical location, ie Emergency Room. The '''[[Previous Service field]]''' would be family medicine. '''[[Pre-admit Inpatient Institution field]]''' would be following usual instructions - were they an inpatient?

****They were accepted, so yes they were technically an in-patient. They deteriorated while in the ER however, so they ended up consulting the ICU before they physically made it up to the ward.[[User:Mlagadi|Mlagadi]] 11:22, 2017 February 21 (CST) | |||
