Description

An indication of whether a PATIENT DIAGNOSIS  was already present when the PATIENT  started a Hospital Provider Spell.

Note: PRESENT ON ADMISSION INDICATOR  is only required for PATIENTS  with a PATIENT DIAGNOSIS  relating to a pre-existing Pressure Ulcer or Venous Thromboembolism (VTE) before admission to a Health Care Provider, recorded as an ICD-10 CODE.  This is to allow sufficient time for Health Care Providers  to move to using the SNOMED CT -coded Comorbidity data structure to submit this data in CDS V6-3 Type 130 - Admitted Patient Care - Finished General Episode Commissioning Data Set  / CDS V6-3 Type 190 - Admitted Patient Care - Unfinished General Episode Commissioning Data Set, which is the preferred mechanism of data submission.
