But what is the status of the patient and of the treating facility? Is this facility within the prison a clinic? A hospital where the patient stays instead of his usual quarters in the prison? I wouldn't automatically assign 992xx without knowing these....

POS would be 09 for prison/correctional facility with the new patient code.
