CODE 1 Yes Includes all first non-admitted patient service events, including reviews when they are initiated through a new service request. If the service request is for services from multiple non-admitted patient services, irrespective of whether the patient has attended another non-admitted patient service, if it is the patient's first service event with this non-admitted patient service, a Yes should be recorded. CODE 2 No Includes non-admitted patient service events that involve follow up or clinical review service events that occur without a new service request. A No should be recorded for a service event:
