## Concepts

| Code | Display | Definition |
| --- | --- | --- |
| preparation | Preparation | The core event has not started yet, but some staging activities have begun (e.g. surgical suite preparation).  Preparation stages may be tracked for billing purposes. |
| in-progress | In Progress | The event is currently occurring. |
| not-done | Not Done | The event was terminated prior to any activity beyond preparation.  I.e. The 'main' activity has not yet begun.  The boundary between preparatory and the 'main' activity is context-specific. |
| on-hold | On Hold | The event has been temporarily stopped but is expected to resume in the future. |
| stopped | Stopped | The event was terminated prior to the full completion of the intended activity but after at least some of the 'main' activity (beyond preparation) has occurred. |
| completed | Completed | The event has now concluded. |
| entered-in-error | Entered in Error | This electronic record should never have existed, though it is possible that real-world decisions were based on it.  (If real-world activity has occurred, the status should be "stopped" rather than "entered-in-error".). |
| unknown | Unknown | The authoring/source system does not know which of the status values currently applies for this event.  Note: This concept is not to be used for "other" - one of the listed statuses is presumed to apply,  but the authoring/source system does not know which. |
