Definition: | The number of group session non-admitted patient service events provided by an establishment. |
Context: | Required to adequately describe the services provided to non-admitted patients. The resources required to provide services to groups of patients are different from those required to provide services to an equivalent number of individuals. Hence services to groups of non-admitted patients should be counted separately from services to individuals. |
