Guide for use:Help on this term

The Emergency service stay—episode end status, code N should guide the selection of the value to be recorded in this field:

  • If the patient is subsequently admitted to this hospital (either short stay unit, hospital-in-the-home or non-emergency service hospital ward), then record the date the patient leaves the emergency service to go to the admitted patient facility.
    • Patients admitted to any other ward or bed within the emergency service have not physically departed the emergency service until they leave the emergency service.
    • If the patient is admitted and subsequently dies before leaving the emergency service, then record the date the body was removed from the emergency service.
  • If the service episode is completed without the patient being admitted, then record the date the patient's emergency service 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 service.
  • If the patient was dead on arrival, then record the date the body was removed from the emergency service. If an emergency service physician certified the death of the patient outside the emergency service, then record the date the patient was certified dead.
  • If the patient was registered, advised of another health-care service, and left the emergency service without being attended by a health-care professional, then record the date the patient leaves the emergency service.
