CV ASC Registry Education-Seq#10200 (Discharge Medication Code)

Video Transcription

Video Summary

Discharge medications for CV ASC procedures are carefully selected based on specific pathways by a team consisting of various stakeholders. Medications are assigned in consideration of data reporting needs and maintaining a concise data set. The data dictionary lists all possible medications, but constraints are applied to show relevant medications based on the selected pathway in the data collection tool. Medications are captured on the data collection form for each procedure. They are available if the patient is alive at discharge and not leaving against medical advice or to another acute care facility. The NCDR manages the medication master file, updating it as needed for data collection. ACC tool users receive automatic updates, while third-party vendors can download the list from the ASC Registry website for their application.
