Use Case 3_ PATIENT_NUM in mapping table but with a different date
If the <patient_id> value already exists in the mapping table then compare the UPDATE_DATE to the existing record's update date. If the new record has a more recent date, then update the current patient record with this data.
Example:
<patient update_date ="2008-05-0418:13:51.00">
<patient_map_id source="HIVE">100</patient_map_id>
<patient_map_id source="BWH">777</patient_map_id>
</patient>
The rows in the PATIENT_MAPPING table before the update:
PATIENT_IDE | PATIENT_IDE_SOURCE | PATIENT_NUM | PATIENT_IDE_STATUS | UPDATE_DATE |
100 | HIVE | 100 | A | 2006-12-03 00:00:00 |
The rows in the PATIENT_MAPPING table after the update:
PATIENT_IDE | PATIENT_IDE_SOURCE | PATIENT_NUM | PATIENT_IDE_STATUS | UPDATE_DATE |
100 | HIVE | 100 | A | 2008-05-04 18:13:51 |
