A set of codes (e.g., for routine, emergency), specifying the urgency under which the Act happened, can happen, is happening, is intended to happen, or is requested/demanded to happen.

Beneficial to the patient but not essential for survival.
An unforeseen combination of circumstances or the resulting state that calls for immediate action.
Used to indicate that a service is to be performed prior to a scheduled surgery. When ordering a service and using the pre-op priority, a check is done to see the amount of time that must be allowed for performance of the service. When the order is placed, a message can be generated indicating the time needed for the service so that it is not ordered in conflict with a scheduled operation.
An "as needed" order should be accompanied by a description of what constitutes a need. This description is represented by an observation service predicate as a precondition.
Routine service, do at usual work hours.
A report should be prepared and sent as quickly as possible.
With highest priority (e.g., emergency).
It is critical to come as close as possible to the requested time (e.g., for a through antimicrobial level).
Drug is to be used as directed by the prescriber.
