Edit Sets:

California Hospital Transmit

Eureka Admission Level

Eureka Tumor Level

Fields:

RX Date Mst Defn Srg  [NAACCR #3170]

RX Date Mst Defn Srg Flag (2010)  [NAACCR #3171]

Message:

RX Date Mst Defn Srg and RX Date Mst Defn Srg Flag conflict

If date is present, corresponding date flag must be blank

If RX Date Mst Defn Srg is blank, corresponding RX Date Mst Defn Srg Flag must = 10, 11, or 12

Specification:

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 does not require RX Date Mst Defn Srg. RX Date Mst Defn Srg and RX Date Mst Defn Srg Flag may both be blank, indicating the date was intentionally not collected. However, if either field is populated, they must be in agreement.

1. If both fields are blank, the edit is skipped.

2. If RX Date Mst Defn Srg is populated, then RX Date Mst Defn Srg Flag must be blank.

3. If RX Date Mst Defn Srg is blank and RX Date Mst Defn Srg Flag is not blank, then RX Date Mst Defn Srg Flag must = 10 (unknown if any surgical procedure of the primary site was performed), 11 (no surgical procedure of the primary site was performed; autopsy only case), or 12 (surgical treatment of the primary site was performed but the date is unknown).
