If an admission has been added in error, it can be deleted from the record by clicking Cancel Admission. The process requires a permission/ privilege to be granted by your System Administrator. A record of the Admission and cancelled will be displayed within the Cancelled Admissions menu. If there are invoices/claims on an Admission it cannot be cancelled.
Please Note: For Statutory reporting - when an Admission is cancelled the report will need to be regenerated, to excluded cancelled admissions.
