== Data Collection ==

* For any record collected as part of [[LAU Collection Project]], consider whether there is an indication of a previous admission for which this is a re-admission, or a subsequent admission that is a re-admission for this admission.

* To decide if something is a re-admission, follow the criteria in [[Readmission to MedWard]]

*Enter this even if the partner-record is also part of the [[LAU Collection Project]]; yes, we would be able to find that re-admission in our usual way, but having all the data coded the same way will make it more consistent to analyze.

==== Special case - previous unit is an inpatient location ====

*If the [[Previous Location]] was an inpatient location then the record doesn't meet criteria for [[Readmission to MedWard]], so ~~'''don't'''~~ mark it as ~~a re-admission~~.

*If the [[Previous Location]] was an inpatient location then the record doesn't meet criteria for [[Readmission to MedWard]], so mark it as "no previous"/"no later".
