	you wrote Oct 16 - I think you meant Oct 15, but if you really meant 16 we need to fix and understand why 15. But that may not be quite right... did this change as part of Change from Service Location to Service, Boarding Loc and Transfer Ready DtTm tmp entry or as part of PatientFollow Project? The former refers to the latter for start dates, and they are different per location. Also, is this based on accept, arrive, dispo, what? We would better just refer to PatientFollow_Project#Transition_dates from here rather than listing a date, so we don't get things confused. But are those the dates you will use to report, Julie?
