Details: This RBT was created by a Medical Office Assistant (MOA) to support filtering panel patients and generating a downloadable .csv file for mass emailing purposes. It produces a list of AC (active) patients under a specific practitioner’s panel, displaying only the patient’s last name and email address — the key information required for importing into https://mailperson.cortico.cc.

Comments:  Our office primarily uses this tool to send important updates to patients, such as notifying them when their family physician will be away. This allows patients to plan prescription refills, follow-up appointments, and informs them about the covering locum physician and their availability.

Please note: This report assumes that empanelment work has been completed to ensure the list includes only truly active patients.

How it works: The grouping is by name & DOB.
The ‘having count(*) > 1; lists the duplicates, but only a single line for each set of dups.

Change
group by last_name, first_name, year_of_birth, month_of_birth, date_of_birth
to
group by hin
for duplicate hins.
