The entry L_TmpV2 entry for Postal Code collection will be automatically created for any new patient created. Data is collected for socioeconomic stratification of population by geographic area.

Collection Instruction

  • "Q"(note, that's the last field on the form, not the first!): enter the patient's postal code example only: X1X1X1, ie no space
    • Use Upper Case letters in the postal code with no space between please.
    • When the postal code is not available, tick off the "B" and leave the space for postal code blank

Special Cases

If you have a homeless person admitted who lists their address as Siloam Mission or the Salvation Army/Booth's Place, use their postal code as provided.

Institutionalized patients

For patients who live in care homes, use the institution's postal code.

For inmates such as from Stoney Mountain or Headingley use the institution's postal code.
