Admitting Patient into Transplant Center

Updated 11/6/2023

The Transplant Editor Role can admit patients directly into EQRS! 

1. FIRST SEARCH for the patient in EQRS:
   • By Name and then by SSN.
   • ‘Nicknames’ are not to be reported in EQRS.
2. CHECK the Admit Tab to see if there is ESRD history:
   • If patient had a prior transplant at your center: 
     • FIRST Discharge as Transplant in the US 
     • THEN change Treatment Status to Non-Functional
3. ADMIT the patient in the Patient --> Admit Patient Tab.
   • Using Transplant as the admit reason has been more effective than using 'New ESRD'
4. UPDATE the admit reason to NEW ESRD if there is no patient information/Treatment history in EQRS.
   1. Click on the Admit Date
   2. Click Edit
   3. Change the Admit Reason to New ESRD.

• This will trigger the 2728 Form to appear.
