This educational session is designed for beginner thru advanced Meditech NPR Report Writers and Hospital Analysts with MEDITECH MAGIC, Client Server, MAT 6.x and Expanse. We will include introductory discussion of Data Repository using Meditech data definitions, NPR tables and SQL table relationships.
Understanding the MEDITECH data structures is key to successful discovery analytics and data mining. We will take an introductory through advanced approach to look at how data is stored, structured, and accessed in the MEDITECH NPR random access file (RAF) data structures. Along the way we will share open-source tools used to understand and access NPR prefixes, databases, nodes, subscripts, and fields.
