Stolen identities
Sometimes patients are admitted under a stolen identity (identity theft), and occasionally this is noticed and affects the patient's chart.
Collection Instructions
- If you had already entered the "stolen" info, change to the new, correct info if known, or follow the instructions at John or Jane Doe patient if not known.
- Put any information that might be required for us to make sense of this data in the future into Alias ID collection; if everything is resolved when you are done with the record you may not need to fill anything in here.
- Also let Pagasa know if the wrong name was initially used in the profile in case she runs into any problems with consistency checks
