Province field

The Province field tracks where a patient is from, i.e. where they are registered with health care, or resident if they are not elegible for health care. Choose the value for the "Province" field from the dropdown lists on the PDA or in Access. The provincial abbreviations are the same as for mailing. In addition to the provinces you have the following options:

• US United States
• CF Canadian Armed Forces
• NK Not Know / Not available
• OS Outside of North America
