What Do These Audit Trail Codes Mean?
The Audit Trail is very good at capturing significant changes made to your OP -- who changed the patient to Checked In? Who cancelled an appointment? Who deleted an Encounter Note?
However, the Audit Trail lists only the relevant codes, not the descriptions of what each code means -- this is necessary so performance isn't bogged down. It may therefore be helpful to get a sense of what some of the common codes mean.
Common Definitions for Code Abbreviations
Table Changed | Field changed | What does this mean? | Code lookup SQL |
Schedule | "ADDR_ID" | Provider the appointment was scheduled with | select staffid, staffname, activestatus from staff1 where staffid >99 and activestatus not in ('1','2') |
Schedule:Appt, Schedule : Main | "activity_status" | The current visit status of an appointment ("In Waiting Room", "MD In Progress" etc) | select appt_type_id as status_number, description as status from appt_type where code_type = 1 order by 1 |
Schedule:Appt | "r_addr_id" | Room/resource assignment | select staffid as resource_id, staffinit as abbrev, staffname as room_resource from staff1 where activestatus = '2' order by 1 |
