 **Proposal:​** This is a small proposal to add place_of_service_source_concept_id. It is a general OMOP convention to represent X_source_value as X_source_concept_id and X_concept_id,​ where X_concept_id is always standard-vocabulary for the domain, and X_source_concept_id maybe standard/​non-standard vocabulary that is an integer representation of X_source_value. We don't have X_source_concept_id in care_site and this proposal is to add it. **Proposal:​** This is a small proposal to add place_of_service_source_concept_id.

-**Use cases:** Many place of services such as Acquired immune deficiency syndrome clinic, Acute pain clinic, Bone marrow transplant clinic, Hospital-based outpatient emergency care center, Medical Intensive Care unit -- does not always have 1:1 mapping with standard-concept ids. We have use cases where we want to use local place of service vocabulary for analytics e.g. how many persons attended the Acute Pain Clinic on Saturday'​s vs Mondays. This cannot be addressed without adding the field place_of_service_source_concept_id+**Use cases:** Many place of services such as Acquired immune deficiency syndrome clinic, Acute pain clinic, Bone marrow transplant clinic, Hospital-based outpatient emergency care center, Medical Intensive Care unit -- does not always have 1:1 mapping with standard-concept ids. We have use cases where we want to use local place of service vocabulary for analytics e.g. how many persons attended the Acute Pain Clinic on Saturday'​s vs Mondays. This cannot be addressed without adding the field place_of_service_source_concept_id. Also adding source_concept_id allows to have good data lineage and provenance to the source.

 +^Field^Required^Type^Description^
 +|care_site_id|Yes|integer|A unique identifier for each Care Site.|
 +|care_site_name|No|varchar(255)|The verbatim description or name of the Care Site as in data source|
 +|place_of_service_concept_id|No|integer|A foreign key that refers to a Place of Service Concept ID in the Standardized Vocabularies.|
 +|location_id|No|integer|A foreign key to the geographic Location in the LOCATION table, where the detailed address information is stored.|

 +|place_of_service_source_concept_id|No|integer|A foreign key that refers to the Place of Service Concept Id refers to the code used in the source .|
 +|place_of_service_source_value|No|varchar(50)|The source code for the Place of Service as it appears in the source data, stored here for reference.|

 +**Other considerations:​**
 +"​Place_of_service_"​ is a long descriptor. "​Place_of_service_source_concept_id"​ is very long and is more than 32 - breaks database column naming rules such as 32 character limit. To overcome, we will have to systematically replace "​Place_of_service_"​ to "​Place_"​.

 +
 +**Add the following to the descriptions in conventions:​**
 +
 +  * It represents the site information needed for use in visit_occurrence table. ​
 +  * The care_site_source_value typically contains the name of the Care Site as used in source data e.g. Medical ICU or a hospital’s name. Care Site is source name for area where service was provided.
 +  * The care site is the non-human or institutional entity where care was delivered. Care site is not based on provider (human) information such as physician who provided care
 +
 +  * Care site is a unique combination of location_id and place_of_service_source_value.
 +  * Location_id (location table) is street address - and is self-explanatory
 +
 +**Place_of_service_source_value**
 +  * Place_of_service_source_value is a component of the care site
 +  * It is a named entity within a location_id or street address
 +  * In a hospital these are the named (noun) units or wards where beds are physically present.
 +  * Examples are ER, ICU unit, med-surg beds, gold-service,​ red-service,​ rehab floor etc.
