We have a ED Holding Location also, however it is an Outpatient Location, not an Inpatient one. This way we then admit to IP status when the IP bed becomes available.

Hi Cindy, Thank you for your response. I didn't explain exactly what I was looking for. I know there is a internal flag for ED patients in ABS or we can use Admit Source of ED or use ed.physician not equal to blank to capture all the ED inpatients from BAR as well. Our issue is our process of admitting ED patients to ER holding location first as an inpatient and then transferring to the actual inpatient location. If we run reports for number of admissions by location then the ER holding location will have most of the admissions because of our process. I need to capture all the admissions by location, including patients admitted directly to their inpatient locations and those patients who are transferred from the ER holding location. Hopefully this will clear out some.

One of the issues using ADM is how your purge parameters are setup.... You can't write out of ADM.PAT.events segments after the # of purge parameter days. We have a unique Admission Source for Direct Admits, and ED Admits have an internal flag indicating they started in emergency. We then use Abstracting to extract this type of data, which is always available.

All messages should be posted in plain text. HTML will be converted to attachments. The meditech-l web site is MTUsers.com ====================================== Hi all, I was asked to write a report for number of admissions for specified location including direct and ED admits. It looked simple but the problem is for ED admits, we admit those patients to ED holding beds and later transfer those patients to actual location whenever the bed is available. I can write reports separately for direct admits and ED transfers but unable to combine the information in one report. My logic for ED admits is the report out of adm.pat.events.description as a detail segment and adm.transfer.index as index file and set up a selection of event.old.location as ED holding location and event.location as any location we want the number for. This report is working perfect for ED admits but I want to include direct admits as well. Does any body have same process of ED holding beds? If yes than how you capture the actual admissions to the floor including ED transfers? Thanks in advance.
