Description

Hi -

I am trying to pull information from Mimic III about where patient's live before they are admitted. The discharge location is extracted in one of the tables but I can't find their location PTA. I see it in some discharge summaries but was hoping to not have to scrape the data if it can be found elsewhere.

Thanks!

Ori

Research direction

Start by reviewing how MIMIC-III discharge location is extracted and compare it with the pre-admission location mentioned in discharge summaries. The issue does not name a repository file, query, or test, so the work would be complete when the data source is identified or its absence is documented.
