This file has been designed for joint use by the Indian Health Service and the Department of Veteran Affairs. POV is an
abbreviation for "Purpose of Visit" (descriptive name used by IHS) or "Problem of Visit" (descriptive name used by VA).
The V POV file is used to store clinical data related to the "Purpose of Visit" or "Problem of Visit", (POV). This is the
provider's definition of what diagnosis represents the patient care given at the visit. The POV entry is not the patient's "Chief
Complaint" text. It is the diagnosis as defined by the provider, which will have an ICD Diagnosis code related to it to support
Clinical needs and additionally support Administrative functions such as Billing, Workload, and DSS.
There should be at least one V POV entry for each patient visit, whether it is an inpatient, outpatient or field visit, and
regardless of the discipline of the provider, i.e., dental, CHN, mental health, etc. There is no limit to the number of POV's that
can be entered for a patient for a given encounter.
At IHS facilities, POV's are generated automatically at the time of discharge from the Admission, Discharge and Transfer (ADT)
system. POVs are entered in narrative form, and coded automatically to the appropriate ICD diagnosis code. Physician entered
narrative, which modifies the diagnosis, such as "doubtful", "suspect", "resolved" are entered by the data entry person in the
MODIFIER field. The file contains pointers to the IHS Patient file, and Visit file, and data must exist in both files for this
visit before a POV can be entered.
At VA facilities, POVs are primarily created for clinic visits from 3 sources:
1) In the CPRS encounter form on the Diagnosis Tab. Pre-existing problems from the patient's Problem List can be selected on this
tab.
2) The scheduling checkout process, in which case the information collected about the POV is limited to the ICD Diagnosis code.
The Provider Narrative becomes the ICD long description from the ICD Diagnosis file.
3) Encounters created by other packages using the API DATA2PCE^PXAPI. If the Provider Narrative is not passed it defaults to the
ICD Long Description.
