bed rangebed_rng

The defined span of values — such as numbered bed identifiers or capacity thresholds — associated with a group of patient accommodation units within a unit or facility in hospital management systems. Used in EHR and reporting platforms for batch bed assignments, census segmentation, and capacity limit configuration in bed management workflows.

bed ratebed_rt

The unit price or reimbursement amount charged for occupying a patient accommodation unit over a defined time period, typically per diem, as recorded in hospital billing and revenue cycle systems. Used in claims processing, chargemaster maintenance, and cost accounting platforms to calculate accommodation charges for inpatient and observation claims.

bed ratingbed_rtg

The assessment value for a patient accommodation unit. 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 bed management and reporting.

bed ratiobed_ratio

The proportional value for a patient accommodation unit. 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 bed management and reporting.

bed reasonbed_rsn

The coded or free-text explanation describing why a patient accommodation unit is in a particular status — such as blocked, dirty, or under maintenance — within hospital bed management and ADT systems. Used in EHR platforms like Epic and Cerner to document bed unavailability causes, supporting housekeeping workflows and occupancy reporting accuracy.

bed received datebed_rcvd_dt

The receipt date for a patient accommodation unit. Used to track temporal information related to bed received date. This field is commonly used in electronic health records (EHR), healthcare information systems (HIS), and clinical data warehouses for bed management and reporting.

bed referencebed_ref

An external pointer or cross-system identifier linking a patient accommodation unit to related records in facility management, billing, or EHR systems. Used in healthcare data integration pipelines and ADT interfaces to maintain referential integrity across platforms such as Epic, Cerner, and third-party bed management or RTLS tracking systems.

bed resolution datebed_resol_dt

The condition end date for a patient accommodation unit. Used to track temporal information related to bed resolution date. This field is commonly used in electronic health records (EHR), healthcare information systems (HIS), and clinical data warehouses for bed management and reporting.

bed respirationbed_resp

The breathing rate value for a patient accommodation unit. 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 bed management and reporting.

bed resultbed_rslt

The recorded outcome or status measurement associated with a patient accommodation unit following a clinical assessment, inspection, or operational workflow in hospital management systems. Used in EHR and bed tracking platforms to document findings such as bed readiness, infection control outcomes, or patient placement results within ADT processes.

bed review systemsbed_ros

The body systems assessment for a patient accommodation unit. 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 bed management and reporting.

bed scheduled timebed_sched_tm

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

bed scorebed_scr

A calculated numeric rating assigned to a patient accommodation unit based on clinical, operational, or environmental criteria — such as infection risk, acuity suitability, or maintenance condition — within hospital bed management systems. Used in EHR analytics platforms to drive algorithmic bed assignment decisions and optimize patient placement workflows.

bed sequencebed_seq

An ordinal number designating the positional order of a patient accommodation unit within a room, ward, or unit configuration in hospital facility and bed management systems. Used in EHR platforms to control display ordering of beds in census views, ADT interfaces, and bed board visualizations for clinical and operational users.

bed service datebed_svc_dt

The specific calendar date on which a patient accommodation unit delivered or was assigned for care services, as recorded in hospital ADT and billing systems. Used in EHR platforms and claims data to establish per-diem accommodation charges, validate inpatient encounter timelines, and support revenue cycle adjudication for facility-based claims.

bed severitybed_sev
