Book excerpt: Inpatient vs. Observation status is a convenient pocket-size guide that equips admitting providers to determine a patient's admission status quickly, easily, and effectively. This pocket-sized guide contains tables and generally accepted guidelines for practitioners who admit patients. Each topic is usually covered on a single page, with an accompanying chart on the facing page, allowing for quick decision-making of the patient's admission status (inpatient versus observation). This makes it precise and easy to comprehend. By matching clinical findings with criteria charts, providers are able to quickly and easily determine if a patient is appropriate for inpatient or observation admission status. In addition, by providing tips for documentation you are able to write the correct admission orders initially, avoiding the headaches of time-consuming changes later, penalties, and/or loss of revenue.This pocket-size guide is ideal for physicians, medical students, interns, residents, NPs, PAs, dentists, and anyone else responsible for assigning the correct admission status.
