| Regarding coding of MRSA and VRE colonization. As has been pointed out before, this is problematic. Allan reported that Dr. Kumar has said he has no need for that information, and that Dr. Olafson indicated that MRSA colonization is needed for the national Vital Signs project. Julie reported that in the past 2 years there were 2 requests for data related to these variables. It was decided that Allan with contact Dr. Embil and see if we can obtain this data from Infection Control. If so, we could import it into the database, and have our data collectors cease obtaining it.[[User:TOstryzniuk|Trish Ostryzniuk]] 17:50, 2013 November 7 (CST)
