The mode is from the point of view of the patient in relation to the healthcare provider who records the service event in the patient's medical record.

This data element is mapped to the Telehealth participating site-telehealth participation role type data element from the Non-admitted patient service event-service delivery setting and Non-admitted patient service event-service delivery mode as follows:
Service delivery setting code 2 (OFF - the hospital campus of the healthcare provider (another hospital)) or 3 (OFF - the hospital campus of the healthcare provider (other setting)) and service delivery mode code 3 (Videoconference) is mapped to code 1 (Originator (Patient location)).
Service delivery setting code 1 (ON - the hospital campus of the healthcare provider) and service delivery mode code 3 (Videoconference) is mapped to code 2 (Collaborator (Other location)).
This metadata item provides a consistent framework for counting non-admitted patient service events for costing and funding purposes.
