Does anyone use PV1.11 – Temporary Location – to indicate a patient is temporarily in a location other than the assigned unit/room/bed? For instance, when an inpatient is sent to the Cath Lab, and may be there for several hours – long enough to get a meal – is this ‘temporary move’ information sent out in ADT, to whom, and in what field? I’m asking if your HIS performs this function/updates this field (or something like it) or do you have logic in Cloverleaf to account for temporary moves?

Thanks,

Peter

  Peter,
  
  In our ADT interface with Epic, we see ADT^A02s occuring when a patient is sent to another area for treatment, but the PV1:6 field (Prior Patient Location), component 6, it indicates “PATIENT RETURNING”; we don’t see any value in PV1.11. We filter these particular ADT^A02 messages to most of our downstreams as they don’t want to remove the patient from that bed because it would cause issues with things like the cancellation of phone & TV service, or cancellation of meds from the Pyxis station in that unit, etc.
  
  Hope this helps.

  I like that idea! Filter on PATIENT RETURNING for everything except dietary (or do something different for dietary).
  
  Thats great.
  
  thanks.
