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.

    • The purpose of this variable is for Julie to link profiles from one ward to another when both wards are within the database program. If the ward you send to is not in the drop down list just leave variable 2 blank because this information is only used for wards within the program. I have added this clarification after discussion with Julie. --LKolesar 11:31, 13 October 2011 (CDT)

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

Any patient who is discharged to a medicine ward from a medicine ward at the same hospital must have Var 2 entered if the option exists in the drop down list.
