Why This Matters?

A Hospital Rounds Admission is used to add a patient to the Hospital Rounds list when the practitioner needs to visit and manage the patient during their hospital stay. It creates the Hospital Round Case used to track the patient's Hospital Round visits and related information.

Using a Hospital Rounds Admission provides the practitioner with a central place to manage patients requiring Hospital Rounds, making it easier to track their visits, clinical information, and progress throughout the patient's hospital stay.

💡 Please Note: Hospital Rounds Admission refers to adding a patient to the Hospital Rounds list and does not refer to the patient's actual admission to the hospital.
