Appendix 2: Business Rules for checking Diagnosis Flags (including ICD-10-AM)
Death Flag (Y or N)
Where event end type is Died (“DD”) generate a warning; if no diagnosis/procedure has a death flag of “Y”.
Sex Flag (M, F or B)
The sex code should equal the sex flag or the sex flag should be “B”. Generate warning if the sex code is “U”.
Age should be calculated by the event end date minus the birth date; if the event end date is not entered use the event start date.
Low Age (0–121)
If age < low age generate warning.
High Age (0–121)
If age > high age generate warning.
Normal NZ
Generate warning if a diagnosis/procedure is used that has Normal NZ flag of “N”.
Late Effect Flag
Flag deleted.
Priority Flag
Flag deleted.
External Cause of Injury Flag (Y or N)
Generate warning if no diagnosis/procedure is an external cause of injury code if this flag is “Y”.
Unacceptable Principal Diagnosis (Y or N)
Generate warning if used where the diagnosis type = “A”.
Operation Flag (Y or N)
Allow operation date to be blank if this is “Y” or “ ”.
Allow accident date to be blank if this is "Y".
If flag is set to “N” then operation date must be present.
If flag is set to “Y” then operation date and accident date are optional.
If flag is set to “ ” then operation date is not applicable.
Non-specific Principal Diagnosis (Y or N)
No testing on load – to be used by audit programs.
Collection Type
C = Cancer.
P = Psychiatric (Mental Health).
M = Birth (mother).
If C then load event to old NMDS as well (in future select for presenting to new Cancer Registry database).
If P then load event to old NMDS as well.
Appendix 3: Duplicate and overlapping event checking rules
Fatal duplicate events. Reject if:
- The same key fields exist.
- Same master_hcu_id, the same event start and end dates, different facility, event type is the same and length of stay is greater than zero days.
- Same master_hcu_id, the same event start and end dates, same facility, event types are different and length of stay is greater than zero days.
Generate warning if:
- Same master hcu_id, same facility, same start and end dates, same event type and length of stay of both events = 0.
Fatal overlapping events. Reject if:
- Same master_hcu_id, same facility, same start date, same event type and length of stay of both events > 0.
- Same master_hcu_id, same facility, start date of one event is between start and end dates of the other event, same event type (not “IM”) and length of stay of both events > 0.
- Same master_hcu_id, same facility, same start date, different event types and neither = “IM” and length of stay of both events > 0.
- Same master_hcu_id, different facilities, same start date, same event type (not “IM”) and length of stay of both events > 0.
- Same master_hcu_id, different facilities, start date of one event is between start and end dates of the other event, different event types and neither = “IM” and length of stay of both events > 0.
In general (in plain English):
A day case (event type = ID or event type = IP and stay = 0 days) may occur within an IP or IM event for the same master_hcu_id where the stay is not 0.
Two day cases (event type = IP and stay = 0, or event type = ID and event start date is the same as an IP or IM event) may exist on one day for the same master_hcu_id.
An IP or IM event where stay is greater then 0 may exist within an IM event for the same master_hcu_id.
If length of stay is greater than zero for both events and the length of stay for both events for the same master_hcu_id is the same then reject.
