ADT^A10
ADT/ACK - Patient arriving - tracking
The A10 event is sent when a patient arrives at a new location in the healthcare facility (inpatient or outpatient). The A09 - patient departing-tracking and A10 events are used when there is a change in a patient's physical location and when this is NOT a change in the official census bed location, as in the case of an outpatient setting. There are three varieties of these non-census location changes involving three different kinds of notification: (a) an unofficial notification of location change prior to the official notification of patient tracking, (b) the patient is in transit between locations for some time, (c) a notification of a temporary location change.
Patient tracking: If the patient is now at a non-temporary location and is not in transit, then PV1-3 - Assigned Patient Location must contain the new patient location and PV1-6 - Prior Patient Location can contain the old patient location.
