CR0420 Multidisciplinary Team Discussion Indicator is taken from the ‘Was patient discussed at MDT field’ in the Care Plan/MDT>MDT tab.
CR0430 Multidisciplinary Team Discussion Date (Cancer) is the date recorded in the ‘Meeting Site/Date’ field in the Care Plan/MDT>MDT tab
The COSD logic in SCR is these data only get reported to COSD/NLCA if there is an accompanying care plan recorded i.e. there needs to be a Care Plan Agreed Date even though this date is not reported to COSD/NLCA. See next slide for which fields need to be completed in order for CR0420 and CR0430 to be reported.
If there is more than one Care Plan/MDT recorded, the data pulls from the earliest dated Care Plan recorded.
