Notes:
PRESENT ON ADMISSION INDICATOR is the same as attribute PRESENT ON ADMISSION INDICATOR.

Note: PRESENT ON ADMISSION INDICATOR is only required for PATIENTS with a PATIENT DIAGNOSIS relating to a pre-existing Pressure Ulcer or Venous Thromboembolism (VTE) before admission to a Health Care Provider, recorded as an ICD-10 CODE.  This is to allow sufficient time for Health Care Providers to move to using the SNOMED CT-coded Comorbidity data structure to submit this data in CDS V6-3 Type 130 - Admitted Patient Care - Finished General Episode Commissioning Data Set / CDS V6-3 Type 190 - Admitted Patient Care - Unfinished General Episode Commissioning Data Set, which is the preferred mechanism of data submission.
