Description
Some computer edits identify errors. Others indicate possible errors that require manual review for resolution. To eliminate the need to review the same cases repeatedly, over-ride flags have been developed to indicate that data in a record (or records) have been reviewed and, while unusual, are correct.
This over-ride is used with the following edits in the NAACCR Metafile of the EDITS software:
- Primary Site, TNM Clin Stage Valid A- Ed 7 (CoC)
- Primary Site, TNM Clin Stage Valid B- Ed 7 (CoC)
- Primary Site, TNM Path Stage Valid A- Ed 7 (CoC)
- Primary Site, TNM Path Stage Valid B- Ed 7 (CoC)
These edits check T, N, and M combinations against stage group. Adding this over-ride allows the edit to pass when combinations of T, N, and M are entered that are not included in the stage tables used with the edits.
Rationale
This over-ride will allow registrars to enter combination of T, N, and M with a stage group that differs from the combinations documented in the AJCC Staging Manual.
