Admission Date If the infant was admitted on a date other than the one listed, change the date by deleting it and retyping it, or by using the calendar. The Admission Date cannot occur before the Birth Date.

Origin   The Origin field lets you specify whether the infant was born at your hospital or transferred.  The origin field has only two (2) pre-defined choices, Transfer or Inborn.  A Selection Window will be displayed with the choices Transfer and Inborn.


If the infant was born in your hospital, press the Down Arrow key to move the cursor to Inborn.

If the infant has been transferred from another hospital, press Enter. The word “Transfer” will appear in the From field, followed by the word “from” and source character field. Enter the name of the hospital transferring the infant.
