• Key Concepts: 
  Encounter groups are used in the IS-H SAP for Healthcare component to group together related encounters. An encounter is a single episode of care, such as a hospital stay or an outpatient visit. Encounter groups allow for the grouping of related encounters, such as those related to a single patient, so that they can be managed and tracked together. 
  
  How to use it: 
  Encounter groups are created in the IS-H SAP for Healthcare component by assigning a unique identifier to each group. This identifier is then used to link related encounters together. Once the encounter group is created, it can be used to track and manage all related encounters. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When creating an encounter group, it is important to ensure that all related encounters are included in the group. This will ensure that all relevant information is tracked and managed together. Additionally, it is important to keep track of the unique identifier assigned to each encounter group, as this will be needed when linking related encounters together.
