The CMS Guidance states first order:
Decision to Admit: First documentation of the decision to admit the patient from the ED. Specification: as admission processes vary at different hospitals, this can use the first documented time of any of the following: 1) admission order (this may be an operational order rather than the hospital admission to inpatient status order), 2) disposition order (must explicitly state to admit), 3) documented bed request, or 4) documented acceptance from admitting physician. This is not the "bed assignment time" or "report called time
Function Statement states Last order.
