Dates: MDSS Administrative Report Interpretation Guide Onset Date=the first day the case experienced symptoms. This date is a user-generated value and may not be available for all cases. Referral Date=the date the case was entered into the MDSS. This date is a system-generated value, is available for all cases, and cannot be changed. Completion Date=the date the case was marked as completed. This date is a system-generated value, is only available for cases marked as completed in the investigation status field, but can be changed if the case is re-opened and then re-closed (see below). Please consider: To be included in the analysis, a case must have an onset date during the specified time period (if onset date is missing, then referral date is used). If a case is not completed, the number of days from referral to completion is not available for that case and it will not be included in the Referral to Completion analysis. If the onset date is missing, the number of days from onset to referral is not available for that case and will not be included in the Onset to Referral analysis. If a case is re-opened and the investigation status is marked as completed a second time, the case completion date will be changed to the most recent date. For example, if a case is completed on Jan 1st, 2005 and then re-opened and completed again on March 1st, the completion date used in the calculation will be March 1st. Referral date is the date that the case is entered into the MDSS system. In theory, this date should CLOSELY agree with the date that the case was received by the LHD. Statistics: N = number of cases used to determine the Average and Maximum values. Average = the average (also called the mean) number of days between the Onset Date and the Referral Date (or between the Referral Date and the Completion Date). Additionally, the mean can be influenced by outlying values. Maximum = the largest number of days between the Onset Date and Referral Date (or between the Referral Date and Completion Date). Additional points to consider when interpreting this report: It is important to keep in mind that administrative report results can vary widely. Factors affecting the administrative report results include: 1) The date on which the report is run. The specific cases included in the analysis can change as cases are entered, investigated and closed. 2) The number of cases / characteristics of cases included in the analysis. Small sample sizes (N) are subject to outlying data. For example, if your jurisdiction only has a couple of VPDs during a certain time frame and it takes an unusually long time to investigate one of them and the lab report was delayed in another, the time between Onset and Referral and Referral and Completion may be artificially high. Additionally, remember that the mean is more likely to be influenced by outlying values as compared to the median.
