specification

General information on the inter-field editing of date and date flag fields:

The purpose of this inter-field edit is to verify that a date field and the corresponding date flag field are in agreement. A blank flag field indicates that the date was either filled in or intentionally not collected. Otherwise the date flag should include a 2-digit code indicating the reason the date field is blank.

This edit requires RX Date Mst Defn Srg for cases diagnosed 2015 or later; that is, RX Date Mst Defn Srg must be populated OR its corresponding date flag, RX Date Mst Defn Srg Flag, must indicate the reason the field is blank.
