Med Var 2 - Discharge-to Ward

Med Var 2 is used track the specific ward a patient was discharged to within the same center. If a patient is discharged to a ward outside your hospital and you know the ward they went to, please code, if not, leave Var 2 blank. Template:Discussion

• don't think you can code a ward outside your own location ccmdb.mdb should not let you... is this at all being done? Ttenbergen 14:34, 2 November 2010 (CDT)

Possible values are listed in the Var 2 dropdown box in the CCMDB.mdb, which is driven by the S varOptions table.

Data Integrity Checks

Any patient who is discharged to a medicine ward from a medicine ward at the same hospital must have Var 2 entered.

Can't enter code for other hospital

• I don't know if this is an error or bug in the system but if I try and enter in Var 1 or 2 slot the ward of a patient coming from or going to a ward outside my hospital it will not let me send this data in Access. I can only add the specific ward in Var 1 or 2 for transfers within my hospital.TAngell 09:16, 30 March 2009 (CDT)
  • The CCMDB.mdb by design won't let you enter variables for another hospital. If we want to make these universally enterable, we need to add all wards for all locations into S varOptions. Is that what we want? Ttenbergen 14:34, 2 November 2010 (CDT)
