* With the recent change to initially collect the date and time for service and boarding loc as in cognos initially, and to only change it after pt leaves location, the cross checks that require these to be the same were misfiring. So I moved them to being done only on completion. That change will make the data less useful in the interim. What should we do?

** In my opinion the above change could potentially create a lot of confusion for new collectors around processes, may make orientation challenging, and results in additional "head work" to require later reconciliation of service/location start dates/times for all collectors. A question is: Do services/locations eventually drop off the Cognos ADT2 tab for longer stay patients? If so, this would result in even more work for collectors to reconcile service/location start date/times deferred to when the patient is discharged. To always enter known correct data whenever possible is the most logical, easiest, and most consistent approach. The data is of more immediate value to main office staff.

*** I think the change and decision below may address this, but leaving this question for Lisa since it is about collection practice rather than what is being collected. Let me know if you need me to resolve it. [[User:Ttenbergen|Ttenbergen]] 12:54, 2022 August 3 (CDT) | |||

* [[Postal Code]] should be included if available from [[Cognos]] but is known to sometimes change during the admission; we don't expect collectors to quality check this on incomplete records | |||
* [[Previous Location]] should be entered if easily available from Cognos data, but is not required if it requires further data review | |||

*is is possible to add previous location and postal codes as part of minimal data set. Its addition will expand the use of data for incompletes and answer the question where the patients are coming from which is commonly requested. --[[User:JMojica|JMojica]] 13:57, 2022 June 24 (CDT) | *is is possible to add previous location and postal codes as part of minimal data set.
