Since the PHIN is used as a unique identifier for patients to detect repeat and continuous visits, a "''pseudo-PHIN''" is assigned for patients who don't have a PHIN. At this point, pseudo-PHINS are assigned manually by [[data processor|Pagasa]] based on a series she maintains. List of pseudo PHIN's used and next number available is kept in a blue book at Pagasa work station.
