Start Time End Time

Post by Hersheydmd » Thu Jun 13, 2013 8:30 pm

Looking in the ProcedureLog, the ProcTime/ProcTimeEnd are the Time Start & End in the Procedure Info window.
In that case what does StartTime/StopTime represent?
All the StartTime/StopTime 's are 12:00AM 01/01/0001, meaning no entry.

To my understanding, some insurance companies pay doctors based on the amount of time it takes to complete the procedure. This is where they can record that information.

Correct, any date in the database that is before the year 1880 is considered null or no entry. Simply means you haven't used the start and stop feature in the procedure edit window. Probably will never need to.
The best thing about a boolean is even if you are wrong, you are only off by a bit.
