METeOR identifier:	327268
Registration status:	Health, Standard 01/03/2005 Independent Hospital Pricing Authority, Proposed 17/10/2012
Definition:	Separation is the process by which an episode of care for an admitted patient ceases. A separation may be formal or statistical. Formal separation: The administrative process by which a hospital records the cessation of treatment and/or care and/or accommodation of a patient. Statistical separation: The administrative process by which a hospital records the cessation of an episode of care for a patient within the one hospital stay.
Context:	Admitted patient care.
Collection and usage attributes
Comments:	This treatment and/or care provided to a patient prior to separation occurs over a period of time and can occur in hospital and/or in the person's home (for hospital-in-the-home patients). While this concept is also applicable to non-Admitted patient care and welfare services, different terminology to 'separation' is often used in these other care settings.
