MESSAGE

  1. IF 761: For Date of Diagnosis year=2008 and forward, if RX Date--Radiation Flag =[value], then Rad--Location of RX must = [value]

specification

This edit is skipped if any of the following conditions are true:

  1. Rad--Location of RX is blank.

  2. Both Rx Date--Radiation and RX Date--Radiation Flag are blank, indicating the date was intentionally not collected.

 

Note: Another edit, “RX Date Radiation, Date Flag (CoC), verifies that the date and flag fields are in agreement.

 

For cases with Year of Diagnosis 2008 – 9998:

  1. If RX Date--Radiation Flag = 11 or 15, then Rad--Location of RX must = 0.

  2. If RX Date--Radiation Flag = 10, then Rad--Location of RX must = 9.

  3. If RX Date--Radiaiton Flag is blank or 12, then Rad--Location of RX <> 0.

 

Note: The RX Date--Radiation Flag code indicates why there is no appropriate value in the corresponding date field, RX Date--Radiation. A flag value of 11 = traditional date of 00000000. A flag value of 10 = traditional date of 99999999. A flag value of 15 = traditional date of 88888888.

historical changes

10/10/07

Edit (CoC) added for the 2008 data changes per a request from Business Rules Project to further enhance the automated class of case rules. Currently, the only mechanism for verifying that radiation was given at the reporting hospital is through review of text. If these were coded fields, correctly distinguishing between Class 0, 1, 2 and/or 3 could be accomplished automatically rather than requiring review of text.

2010

Data Item Changes: Changed to NAACCR names. Changed edit logic from Date of Radiation = 0s to Radiation flag=11.

2015

Added logic for Flags of 10, 12, 15, and blank values. Note this edit only differs from CoC version because of Year of Diagnosis requirements.
