Outpatient hold admission versus inpatient
Subject: Outpatient hold admission versus inpatient

Please read this with a little grain of salt, since I don't have enough info to be sure in this case, but this has happened to me before. Most hospitals and most insurance companies have a "24 hour hold bed" policy of some sort. The patient is considered an outpatient, (and charged the lesser "hold bed" charge) even though admitted to the hospital, for the first 24 hours, or 23 hours and 59 minutes. Maybe this doc is saying that the EKG was done at that time in the admission - hour #23, minute #____. Again, use caution, and if this is the case, the doctor sure SHOULD have said "at 23 hours X minutes after" admission or clarified it somehow. But this is just food for thought, since I have had docs dictate using the number of hours since the patient was admitted, though I'm happy to say they the docs always made it known that that's the way they were counting down the hold bed time.

just guessing, could it be admission and disch (A&D)so pt can get hospice care afterwards?

Subject: Med called Tensol?

Anyone heard of this? Cannot locate in my references. Went online and researched; only found TenSal (saline) and Tensol (a site in Malta). Given context, TenSal is not a candidate IMO.

Context: However, toward the end of the hospitalization, she was barely able to take any medication or liquid, and we discontinued all oral medications. We did continue the patient on suspension of Roxanol and Ativan and ---TENSOL--- to keep her as comfortable as possible. In fact, she was comfortable throughout her hospice stay.
