How an admission ended. Decides what the exit requires: a transfer out names the receiving facility, leaving against advice takes a signed form, an absconsion records the last sighting instead of a signature, and a death defers to the record of death.

| normal | Normal | The patient was discharged as planned, on clinical grounds. |
| transfer-out | Transfer out | The patient was moved to another facility, which takes over their care. |
| left-against-medical-advice | Left against medical advice | The patient chose to leave before the clinician judged them ready, and signed to say so. |
| absconded | Absconded | The patient left unobserved. Nobody discharged them, so the record carries the last time they were seen rather than a signature. |
| deceased | Deceased | The stay ended in a death. The facts of it live on the record of death. |

Explanation of the columns that may appear on this page:
| Level | A few code lists that FHIR defines are hierarchical - each code is assigned a level. In this scheme, some codes are under other codes, and imply that the code they are under also applies |
| System | The source of the definition of the code (when the value set draws in codes defined elsewhere) |
| Code | The code (used as the code in the resource instance) |
| Display | The display (used in the display element of a Coding). If there is no display, implementers should not simply display the code, but map the concept into their application |
| Definition | An explanation of the meaning of the concept |
| Comments | Additional notes about how to use the code |
