"almost same patient" check: Difference between revisions

~~not implemented yet, will be implemented~~ with ~~other multi-encounter checks~~.

If any records match on most demographic entries they almost certainly are for the same patient; if they only match on some they are likely for the same patient with a data entry error in the differing field.

~~If records match on all~~ of ~~the following they almost certainly are for the same patient; if they only match on some they are likely for the same patient with a data entry error~~ in ~~the differing field~~.

A number of "PL queries" were implemented in [[Centralized_data_front_end.accdb]] to check for this:

*[[PL_SamePHIN_Site_Diff_chart]]

*[[PL_DiffPhin_SameLN_FN_DOB]]

*[[PL_SamePhin_Diff_DOB_Sex]]

*[[PL_SameCHART_Site_Diff_PHIN]]

~~Flag records~~ that ~~match on (all - 1) fields of the following:~~

The queries are used during the [[Centralized data Vetting Process]], see that article for more info.

* PHIN

* first name & last name

* DOB

* sex

* chart number (if same hospital)

~~We would likely want~~ a ~~way to exclude legitimately similar patients from future comparisons~~.

There is also the [[Cat button]] in [[Centralized_data_front_end.accdb]] which will show a list of profiles that partially or completely match the current profile's patient.
