*Making "admit from location" part of the minimal data set is problematic.  Often I receive patients from the heart cath lab and it is unclear where they were before this. Or I may get an admission from another hospital but not sure if it is ER, ICU, etc.  I cannot sort this out until I see the chart which can take awhile if it is on my medical records request list.  If this is part of the minimum data set, I will be unable to send any patients until I get this information.  I just want you to know that if this is part of the  minimum data set, there may be some weeks when I cannot send because I am missing that information.--[[User:LKolesar|LKolesar]] 13:05, 2013 February 27 (EST)

The absence of these items in Part B, will not stop the CCMDB from sending files. These items are allowed to be empty since they may not be available initially, but they should be filled in '''as soon as available.''' '''The Discharge Date''' is most important to enter into data ASAP.
