Guide for use:Help on this term

The episode end status should guide the selection of the value to be recorded in this field:

 

  • If the service episode is completed without the patient being admitted, then record the date the patient's emergency department non-admitted clinical care ended.
  • If the service episode is completed and the patient is referred to another hospital for admission, then record the date the patient leaves the emergency department.
     
  • If the patient was dead on arrival, then record the date the body was removed from the emergency department. If an emergency department physician certified the death of the patient outside the emergency department, then record the date the patient was certified dead.
  • If the patient was registered, advised of another health care service, and left the emergency department without being attended by a health care professional, then record the date the patient leaves the emergency department.
Collection methods:Help on this term

Collected in conjunction with emergency department physical departure time.
