Admit From & Discharged To
The Admit From value defines the location from where a patient was admitted, the Discharged To value where they were discharged to.
Special Cases
If a patient is admitted to another hospital first, then transferred to your ER, then is sent up to unit, code that they were admitted from another hospital not your ER. Also indicate this in the Hospital Number Code box. If a patient comes from another hospital, goes to ER, then to OR, then to your unit code as admitted from OR, but in the hospital previous field put the center that they had been sent from.
If a patient comes from another center to angiography in your center, then to your unit, please record which site the patient was from prior to angiogram and in the hospital number code box put the center that they had been sent from.
Discussion
- does #2 still apply? Is ccmdb set up to accept this?
