Code book - Wiki discrepancies
Hi Trish,
Just to let you know this code is in our PDA,s but not in the new book. Shirley Kiesman.
This is a new code that was just added on April 10,2009. Gail Hall.
- If you see a code that is added to the WIKI and to your s-alldiagnosis tables on your PDA & Access , then please add it into your code book also. I will not be sending reminders out to update code books.
- Code books will not always be up to date and it is up to you to update your copy. Eventually all will be on the WIKI. --TOstryzniuk
Template:Discussion Trish, is it time to make the wiki the official manual and to officially not support the code book any longer? Just to prevent confusion like this? Ttenbergen 10:31, 20 August 2009 (CDT)
