Microchip Implantation
Submitted by Ben_Charlton on Thu, 05/03/2015 - 13:40
Some new federal guidelines regarding animal exporting were dropped in my lap yesterday, they are suggesting that 2 extra details be reported when recording animal microchips
1. Date of Implant which is currently recorded on most databases or Date of Scanning
This represents the date you as a vet first recorded the chip in a given patient.
2. Location of Implant
This represents the location of the chip when you scanned it approximately.
I propose we update the microchip records to allow these values to be optionally recorded.
Additionally I propose the creation of 2 further expressions that could be used in reports
1. party:getPatientMicrochipDate
2. party:getPatientImplantLocation
Thoughts?
Re: Microchip Implantation
A party:getMicrochip() function that returns the entityIdentity.microchip would be better. You can then access whatever field you want.
