So when the 2min windows pops up in CCS, do you cancel everything (.ie abx, IVF)...or you just add as if you are still treating the patient (say in...inpatient)

I'm reading MTB and he pretty much says to use some common sense and show management. For example: If treating someone for CAP and they improved enough to go home.... I'd switch them from IV to PO meds, DC any therapies specific to the hospital, schedule a follow-up visit, etc... I don't believe you just stop every intervention once someone is stable enough to go home or maintain drugs/therapies that would require nursing visits when switching delivery routes makes more sense.

I didn't cancel anything. I really only added counseling and then a diagnosis.
