*Transfer delay calculation is done similarly with the Critical Care calculation which is substracting ''n'' hrs from all actual delay time and for Medicine, ''n'' is 4 hours.
*In the meeting held Jan 11, 2023, Critical Care agreed to change the calculation of  transfer delays which Medicine will do similarly  for consistency: (a) ignore such transfer delays < 4 hrs, but (b) for all delays >=4 hrs to use the actual delay time.  The process is to be done at each level of care.
