Hello,
I have been changing the patient status according to what I find in the nurse patient discharge, like if a patient was brought in and discharged to law enforcement,then I change it to that, is this the correct way to do it? Our HIM ladies were told to always set as home, but I don't feel like this is correct, I very well may be wrong though. Thanks for any input!
Michele:
The patient status code is not required by every insurance but you should put what is most accurate, unless an insurance carrier requires something specific. So I believe you are correct in changing it if the patient is being discharged to someone other than the home.
