Field was created at same time as Person_ID, but never populated. It would have been hard to populated when first created and we never got around to it.

Using ClientVisitGUID from Cognos

Cognos data includes a field ClientVisitGUID, which is the identifier per hospitalization in EPR. We could use that field to populate this field. One advantage would be that ClientVisitGUID remains the same even when other data is corrected for a John Doe. One disadvantage is that not all our profiles are entered from Cognos, and this field would be blank for those that are not. Colletors can't look the field up in EPR, so it would have to come from Cognos data.
