Description

APPOINTMENT DATE is the same as attribute APPOINTMENT DATE.

Usage in the CDS: The Outpatient (CDS version 6-2 and CDS version 6-3) and Future Outpatient (CDS version 6-2 only)  CDS Types use the  APPOINTMENT DATE as the "CDS ORIGINATING DATE" as a mandatory requirement of the CDS Bulk/Net Update Protocols, see CDS ACTIVITY DATE.

For the CDS V6-2 Type 021 - Future Outpatient Commissioning Data Set, where no APPOINTMENT DATE is available from the healthcare system, a default date value of 2999-12-31 may be applied. Care must be taken to generate the correct CDS Bulk/Net Update Protocol when using this default value.
