** Allan suggested this OFFWARD field for some reasons related to outcome. you are right the tmp Boarding will indicate patients staying in offward locations. Offward started July 2016. CC started tmp Boarding July 2018 while Med on Sept2019. since offward start date was before any of these BL dates, we need to keep those data in prior dates. --[[User:JMojica|JMojica]] 16:18, 2022 August 12 (CDT) | ** Allan suggested this OFFWARD field for some reasons related to outcome. you are right the tmp Boarding will indicate patients staying in offward locations.

There is a weird spike in Jan 2018, other than that numbers in a similar range between 16-07 and 20-03. So from when until when would we consider this data reliable? We should likely clean up values outside that range so no one thinks records are reliably tagged outside that range.

}} | ** Tina, for the pre2016 profiles, the OFFWARD field is pre-populated by the old VAR3, VAR4,VAR5 (see below) and therefore they are reliable. Actually Var3 to Var5 specify the units they are overflowing (similar with tmp Boarding but only with location and no start dates). If I remember right, when Allan introduced OFFWARD, he was thinking of the specific location but the idea was not received well and so decided just to be binary code YES/NO. For research project needing historical data, I think binary data would still be useful. we can either keep it as or be saved as tmp project. --[[User:JMojica|JMojica]] 15:38, 2022 August 29 (CDT) }} | ||
Use of this field is likely inconsistent after 2019-09; we started [[Boarding Loc]] which implies the content of this field but failed to properly phase out this field at the time. | Use of this field is likely inconsistent after 2019-09; we started [[Boarding Loc]] which implies the content of this field but failed to properly phase out this field at the time. | ||
