Care Setting Type, Service, Discharge Disposition

Hello all,

CIHI is interested in knowing what the jurisdictions are using as concepts/value sets in EHR/EMR implementations for the following:

• Care settings or institution types that patients are coming from and going to
• Services patient are referred from/to; and
• Discharge dispositions

Additionally, we’re interested in knowing which jurisdictions have discharge summary, e-referral, or other specifications that may incorporate these concepts.

If you are using pan-Canadian EHR standards for any of the above, we would be interested to know which one.

We’ll appreciate receiving documentations that show any of the above.

Please respond to this post and or send your reply to This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. by mid-next week.

Thank you very much.
