HUMS Hospital

Purpose: To ensure the patient understands their condition, treatment plan, and follow-up instructions after leaving the hospital.

- Discharge Summary: An official hospital document for internal records and continuity of care.
Formal clinical document intended for internal use and onward referrals
Includes:
Final diagnosis with ICD codes
Treatment summary and hospital course
Procedures performed
Relevant investigations and outcomes
Specialist notes and recommendations
Purpose: For medical documentation, internal reference, and continuity of care
