Haha. BG is " baby girl" which gets put in the medical record before they're given a name, zzname is just what we put into the record for easy searching. So BGzzname is baby girl without a name.
Because the record is created from an erncounter with another patient ( the mother) they need to use a "boarding" profile, which becomes the baby's record once they're set.
Sometimes the coding in Epic gets stuck with the patient being a boarding mom, and it won't let you place orders for the baby, because it think it's a boarding mother still.... so rather than work with Epic ( vendor), they just leave the process broken and create a new medical record for the baby.
TL;DR- Can't tell the parents they can leave with their baby until the computer says so. Computer says " no". Rather than fix, they tell the computer it's a different patient until it says " ok, you can go home"
