Anyone have any thoughts on this ? Anyone have any other ways of doing this ?
We have been experiencing many issues when it is necessary to transfer an inpatient to a surgical day care (SDC) status. We have no issues with an inpatient to observation status and vice versa as these changes can be processed via an alternative method. However, we have found that many facilities struggle with the fact that changing an account from an inpatient to an SDC status can only be accomplished via the Undo Events routine in the Admissions module. This is due to the fact that completing the Undo Events routine brings with it a negative impact on ancillary departments (most notably here, Pharmacy, as it cancels patient medication orders) as it totally cancels what certain areas have previously done on the inpatient account. Is this the only routine available to utilize in these instances? If so, what is the rationale behind it because everything done on the patient account up to the point that the status needs changed to SDC remains so vital, and the only desire in the end is to have the patient status changed from an inpatient to an SDC?
