Change to collect TISS data in CCI Picklist

We are changing the collection and storage of TISS data to enter it directly into the CCI Picklist form.

We have not set a change date for this yet. Tentatively Dec 1, 2020. Read the instructions, and even try to enter one of these to see how that would work for collectors, just delete them before sending.

Collection instructions

• For every day of any item on the TISS Item List entered that item's CCI Picklist entry as Acquired Procedure
• If a patient changes units during a day, we need to be able to assign the TISS entry to a specific unit. In that case, add a time to the Px Date that is during the stay on the unit that the entry should be associated with; the time doesn't need to be exact, we just need it to assign it the entry to the first or second unit that day. If no time is entered, the entry will be associated with the first unit that day.
• If no TISS item was done for a patient, enter a line "No TISS Item"
• To enter a second TISS item of the same kind for the next day, click the "x2" button and then the "+" for the date

we will probably add some tools to CCMDB to make it a bit easier to enter them; some things that come to mind would be some buttons at the bottom for the most common TISS items (what are those). Depending on what we want this will need to come later when there is time to implement it.

Phase-out of TISS scanning process

Pagasa would scan any forms that are at least partly before the transition date. If forms later than that were scanned that would not harm anything, it would just be a waste of time. We would need to either exclude scanned data after the transition date, or write a query to delete it outright.

Implementation

• a line for each item in TISS Item List has been added to the S CCI Picklist table

To Do

When this is settled, TISS28 Collection Guide and many pages in Category:TISS28 will need to be updated.

Background

It was decided at Task meeting that we would stop collecting TISS data on the pink sheets and instead enter it directly into CCMDB.accdb.

There are several reasons to do this:

• now that we do all the collection of this, the TISS sheets have really just become a different place where our collectors enter data; if we are doing it anyway, might as well enter straight into electronic format
• processing TISS forms relies on a complicated scanning, import and matching process; entering the data directly means we can drop that process
• eliminating the TISS forms eliminates handling of paper forms from COVID zones
