NAACCR XML: Patient.overRideNameSex
Description
Some computer edits identify errors. Others indicate possible errors that require manual review for resolution. To eliminate the need to review the same cases repeatedly, over-ride flags have been developed to indicate that data in a record (or records) have been reviewed and, while unusual, are correct.
This over-ride is used with the following edit in the NAACCR Metafile of the EDITS software:
Sex, Name-First, Date of Birth (NAACCR)
Rationale
Some edits check for code combinations that are possible, but quite rare. If the code combination generates an error message and review of the case indicates that the codes are correct for the case, then the over-ride flag is used to skip the edit in the future. See Chapter IV, Recommended Data Edits and Software Coordination of Standards. Over-ride flag as used in the EDITS Software Package Edits of the type Sex, Name does not allow extremely rare or nonexistent combinations of first name and sex, such as John/female.
Codes
1

Blank
Not reviewed or reviewed and corrected
Note:
Leave blank if the program does not generate an error message for the edit Sex, Name-First, Date of Birth (NAACCR)
