| full= * We discussed whether different [[LOS]] will cause problems with this distribution of patients.

=== Medical Records requests ===
Split of shelves would need to become based on [[Laptop identifier]] (it may already be...); update [[HSC Medical Records requests]].
 
=== EMIPs ===
EMIP's will be collected in the same way as we collect ward patients, using the assigned MRN's, so over time, they should have an equal distribution based on your EFT.
 
== What would be the actual chart number split per site and per collector ==
We would essentially take the sum EFTs per program/site and consider them as 100%, and then assign the chart numbers based on that percentage. For example, if a site has 3 collectors that are each a .5EFT, each collector would get 33% of that site's new admissions, so collector A might get charts ending in 00-33, collector B 34-66, and collector C 67-99.
