The PV1 segment is used by Registration/Patient Administration applications to communicate information on an account or visit-specific basis. The default is to send account level data. To use this segment for visit level data PV1-51 - Visit Indicator must be valued to "V". The value of PV-51 affects the level of data being sent on the PV1, PV2, and any other segments that are part of the associated PV1 hierarchy (e.g., ROL, DG1, or OBX).
The facility ID, the optional fourth component of each patient location field, is a HD data type that is uniquely associated with the healthcare facility containing the location. A given institution, or group of intercommunicating institutions, should establish a list of facilities that may be potential assignors of patient locations. The list will be one of the institution's master dictionary lists. Since third parties other than the assignors of patient locations may send or receive HL7 messages containing patient locations, the facility ID in the patient location may not be the same as that implied by the sending and receiving systems identified in the MSH. The facility ID must be unique across facilities at a given site. This field is required for HL7 implementations that have more than a single healthcare facility with bed locations, since the same <point of care> ^ <room> ^ <bed> combination may exist at more than one facility.

Definition: This field contains the number that identifies this transaction. For the first occurrence of the segment, the sequence number shall be one, for the second occurrence, the sequence number shall be two, etc.
Definition: This field is used by systems to categorize patients by site. It does not have a consistent industry-wide definition. It is subject to site-specific variations. Refer to User-defined Table 0004 - Patient Class in Chapter 2C, Code Tables, for suggested values.
"Commercial Account" is used by reference labs for specimen processing when the service is billed back to a third party. A registration is processed for the specimen to facilitate the subsequent billing. The identity of the patient may be known or unknown. In either case, for billing and statistical purposes, the patient class is considered a commercial account due to the third party billing responsibility.
"Not Applicable" is used only in cases where the PV1 segment itself is not applicable but is retained in the message definitions for backwards compatibility (for example when a managed care system sends A28, A29, or A31 messages to indicate the enrolment of a patient in the system and there is no scheduled "visit" or "encounter" and hence the entire PV1 segment is not applicable).
Definition: This field contains the patient's initial assigned location or the location to which the patient is being moved. The first component may be the nursing station for inpatient locations, or clinic or department, for locations other than inpatient. For canceling a transaction or discharging a patient, the current location (after the cancellation event or before the discharge event) should be in this field. If a value exists in the fifth component (location status), it supersedes the value in PV1-40 - Bed Status.
Definition: This field indicates the circumstances under which the patient was or will be admitted. Refer to User-defined Table 0007 - Admission Type in Chapter 2C, Code Tables, for suggested values. In the US, entities required to be compliant with the US Healthcare Information Technology Standards Panel (HITSP) are required to use the Official Universal Billing (UB) 04 2008 numeric codes found on form locator 14. Refer to External Table UB04FL14 for valid values.
For example:
Non-US |E^Emergency^HL70007|
US: |1^Emergency^UB04FL14^^^^2008, v 2.0|
To report that information is not available:
Non-US: |NI^No Information^HL70597|
US: |9^Information not available^ UB04FL14^^^^2008, v 2.0|
Definition: This field uniquely identifies the patient's pre-admit account. Some systems will continue to use the pre-admit number as the billing number after the patient has been admitted. For backward compatibility, a ST data type can be sent; however, HL7 recommends use of the CX data type, like the account number, for new implementations. The assigning authority and identifier type codes are strongly recommended for all CX data types.
Definition: This field contains the prior patient location if the patient is being transferred. The old location is null if the patient is new. If a value exists in the fifth component (location status), it supersedes the value in PV1-40 - Bed Status.
Definition: This field contains the attending physician information. Multiple names and identifiers for the same physician may be sent. The field sequences are not used to indicate multiple attending doctors. As of v2.7, if XCN.1 ID Number is populated, then the XCN.13 Identifier Type Code and the XCN.9 Assigning Authority or XCN.22 Assigning Jurisdiction or XCN.23 Assigning Agency or Department are required. If XCN.2 Family Name is populated, then the XCN.10 Name Type Code is required. No assumptions can be safely made based on position or sequence. Specification of meaning based on sequence is deprecated. Depending on local agreements, either ID or the name may be absent in this field. Refer to User-defined Table 0010 - Physician ID in Chapter 2C, Code Tables, for suggested values.
Definition: This field contains the referring physician information. Multiple names and identifiers for the same physician may be sent. The field sequences are not used to indicate multiple referring doctors. As of v 2.7 if XCN.1 ID Number is populated, then the XCN.13 Identifier Type Code and the XCN.9 Assigning Authority or XCN.22 Assigning Jurisdiction or XCN.23 Assigning Agency or Department are required. If XCN.2 Family Name is populated, then the XCN.10 Name Type Code is required. No assumptions can be safely made based on position or sequence. Specification of meaning based on sequence is deprecated. Depending on local agreements, either the ID or the name may be absent from this field. Refer to User-defined Table 0010 - Physician ID in Chapter 2C, Code Tables, for suggested values.
From V2.4 onward, this field has been retained for backward compatibility only. It is recommended to use the PRT - Participation segment for consulting physicians instead.
Definition: This field contains the treatment or type of surgery that the patient is scheduled to receive. It is a required field with trigger events A01 (admit/visit notification), A02 (transfer a patient), A14 (pending admit), A15 (pending transfer). Refer to User-defined Table 0069 - Hospital Service in Chapter 2C, Code Tables, for suggested values.
Definition: This field contains a location other than the assigned location required for a temporary period of time (e.g., OR, operating theatre, etc.). If a value exists in the fifth component (location status), it supersedes the value in PV1-40 - Bed Status.
Definition: This field indicates whether the patient must have pre-admission testing done in order to be admitted. Refer to User-defined Table 0087 - Pre-Admit Test Indicator in Chapter 2C, Code Tables, for suggested values.
Definition: This field indicates that a patient is being re-admitted to the healthcare facility and gives the circumstances. We suggest using "R" for readmission or else null. Refer to User-defined Table 0092 - Re-Admission Indicator in Chapter 2C, Code Tables, for suggested values.
Definition: This field indicates from where the patient was admitted. Refer to User-defined Table 0023 - Admit Source in Chapter 2C, Code Tables, for suggested values. In the US, this field should use the Official Uniform Billing (UB) 04 2008 numeric codes found on form locator 15. Refer to External Table UB04FL15 Source of Origin for valid values. The UB has redefined the Admission Source as the Point of Origin for Admission or Visit. The new UB definition is the code indicating the Point of Origin for this Admission or Visit
For Example:
US: |1^Physician Referral^UB04FL15^^^^2008, v 2.0|
To report that information is not available:
US: |9^Information not available^ UB04FL15^^^^2008, v 2.0|

The assigning authority and identifier type codes are strongly recommended for all CX data types.
Definition: This field specifies the level on which data are being sent. It is the indicator used to send data at two levels, visit and account. HL7 recommends sending an 'A' or no value when the data in the message are at the account level, or 'V' to indicate that the data sent in the message are at the visit level. Refer to User-defined Table 0326 - Visit Indicator in Chapter 2C, Code Tables, for suggested values.
The value of this element affects the context of data sent in PV1, PV2 and any associated hierarchical segments (e.g., DB1, AL1, DG1, etc.).
Definition: The PV1-52 field was retained for backward compatibility only as of v 2.4 and withdrawn as of v 2.7. The reader is advised to use the PRT segment to communicate providers not specified elsewhere. Refer to Chapter 7 for the definition of the PRT segment.
Definition: This field contains a brief user-defined description of a Service Episode in or for which the visit occurs. A Service Episode is the context in which the treatment or management of an arbitrary subset of a Patient’s medical conditions occurs. The definition of the start time, stop time, and included events of a Service Episode is entirely arbitrary; it may include a single outpatient visit or a hospitalization, or extend over significant period of time, e.g., the duration of a pregnancy, or an oncology treatment regimen, or a cardiac episode from infarction through rehabilitation. A Service Episode may involve one or more Healthcare Organizations.
Definition: This field contains the identifier of a Service Episode in or for which the visit occurs.
