NAACCR XML: Tumor.dateSentinelLymphNodeBiopsyFlag

Description
This flag explains why there is no appropriate value in the corresponding date data item, Date of Sentinel Lymph Node Biopsy [832]. This data item is required for CoC-accredited facilities as of cases diagnosed 01/01/2018 and later. This data item is required for breast and melanoma cases only.
Rationale
As part of an initiative to standardize date fields, date flag fields were introduced to accommodate non-date information that had previously been transmitted in date fields.
Codes
10 No information whatsoever can be inferred from this exceptional value (that is, unknown if any sentinel lymph node biopsy was performed)
11 No proper value is applicable in this context (for example, no sentinel lymph node biopsy performed; autopsy only cases)
12 A proper value is applicable but not known. This event occurred, but the date is unknown (for example, sentinel lymph node biopsy performed but date is unknown)
Blank A valid date value is provided in item Date of Sentinel Lymph Node Biopsy [832]. Case was diagnosed prior to January 1, 2018.
