| Guide for use: | This data element is used to determine a non-admitted patient service event. The following codes are in the scope of a non-admitted patient service event:
A non-client event does not have a patient present and is therefore not a non-admitted patient service event.
This data element is also used to derive the group session indicator. Records with a value of GRP for the appointment session type code will be assigned a value of 1 for the group session indicator. All other records will be assigned a value of 2 for the group session indicator.
In addition, this data element is used to calculate the total number of individual non-admitted patient service events and the total number of group session non-admitted patient service events. These items are reported nationally against the following data elements:
