Clinical

The planned time for a hospital patient release. Used to track temporal information related to discharge scheduled time. This field is commonly used in electronic health records (EHR), healthcare information systems (HIS), and clinical data warehouses for discharge management and reporting.

Contains the calculated clinical rating assigned at patient discharge, such as LACE or HOSPITAL readmission risk scores derived from EHR data, used in care management platforms to prioritize post-discharge interventions and reduce preventable readmissions.

Identifies the sequential ordering number of a discharge event within a series of inpatient episodes for a member, used in claims and EHR systems to distinguish multiple hospitalizations, support episode-of-care grouping, and ensure accurate longitudinal encounter tracking.

Captures the specific calendar date on which discharge-related services were rendered during a hospital release event, used in UB-04 claims processing, EHR encounter records, and revenue cycle systems to determine billing periods and coordination of benefits timelines.

Reflects the clinical seriousness level assigned to a patient's condition at the time of hospital discharge, often derived from APR-DRG severity of illness subclasses in EHR and claims systems, used in risk adjustment, quality benchmarking, and payer reimbursement validation.

The biological classification for a hospital patient release. Used in healthcare data management and clinical workflows. This field is commonly used in electronic health records (EHR), healthcare information systems (HIS), and clinical data warehouses for discharge management and reporting.

Identifies the originating facility, unit, or care setting from which a hospital patient was discharged, mapped to UB-04 source-of-admission codes in claims systems and EHR transfer records, supporting care continuum analytics and post-acute referral pattern reporting.

Records the beginning date of the discharge process or discharge planning period within an inpatient episode in EHR and care management systems, used to calculate discharge planning duration, measure care transition efficiency, and support length-of-stay reporting workflows.

The beginning time value for a hospital patient release. Used to track temporal information related to discharge start time. This field is commonly used in electronic health records (EHR), healthcare information systems (HIS), and clinical data warehouses for discharge management and reporting.

The state or province for a hospital patient release. Used in healthcare data management and clinical workflows. This field is commonly used in electronic health records (EHR), healthcare information systems (HIS), and clinical data warehouses for discharge management and reporting.

Stores the standardized UB-04 patient discharge status code indicating a patient's disposition at release, such as home, skilled nursing facility, or expired, used in claims adjudication, EHR encounter finalization, readmission tracking, and CMS quality measure calculations.

The street location for a hospital patient release. Used in healthcare data management and clinical workflows. This field is commonly used in electronic health records (EHR), healthcare information systems (HIS), and clinical data warehouses for discharge management and reporting.

The drug concentration for a hospital patient release. Used in healthcare data management and clinical workflows. This field is commonly used in electronic health records (EHR), healthcare information systems (HIS), and clinical data warehouses for discharge management and reporting.

The partial sum value for a hospital patient release. Used in healthcare data management and clinical workflows. This field is commonly used in electronic health records (EHR), healthcare information systems (HIS), and clinical data warehouses for discharge management and reporting.

The operative procedure date for a hospital patient release. Used to track temporal information related to discharge surgery date. This field is commonly used in electronic health records (EHR), healthcare information systems (HIS), and clinical data warehouses for discharge management and reporting.

The system-generated unique id for a hospital patient release. Used as a unique reference to identify and track the discharge across healthcare systems. This field is commonly used in electronic health records (EHR), healthcare information systems (HIS), and clinical data warehouses for discharge management and reporting.

Specifies the intended destination facility, setting, or care level planned for a patient following hospital discharge, used in EHR care management workflows, post-acute referral tracking systems, and payer utilization management platforms to coordinate transitions of care.

The provider specialty classification for a hospital patient release. Used as a unique reference to identify and track the discharge across healthcare systems. This field is commonly used in electronic health records (EHR), healthcare information systems (HIS), and clinical data warehouses for discharge management and reporting.

The body temperature value for a hospital patient release. Used in healthcare data management and clinical workflows. This field is commonly used in electronic health records (EHR), healthcare information systems (HIS), and clinical data warehouses for discharge management and reporting.

The ending date value for a hospital patient release. Used to track temporal information related to discharge termination date. This field is commonly used in electronic health records (EHR), healthcare information systems (HIS), and clinical data warehouses for discharge management and reporting.
