Only ICU collects [[VAP]] complication date. Is that because Med should never code [[VAP]] complication? If so, that check needs to be done elsewhere...

**Correct - no [[VAP]]'s in Medicine complications. CCMDB.mdb should have the this check programmed into it. If VAP is coded in complication (medicine) then this should be flagged in yellow as an error. Can you do it there? The other option is the data cleaner Pagasa uses, however this is checking data after it is already appended to master database and creates more work for Pagasa.

*** How about if VAP is coded as admit? I should be able to code it; I'd like to make it a hard "no", though, rather than just yellowing it. OK?
