You wouldn't. It appears to be an adverb:

"Status post is an overly used term usually dictated to indicate "following" something; e.g., "The patient had a cardiac stent placed status post coronary angiogram." Unfortunately, too many providers place "status post" in the wrong position in a sentence; e.g., "The patient had a coronary angiogram, status post stent."
