I would be interested in hearing from anyone who has developed logic for identifying patients that have more than one Medical Record Number. There are obvious easy matches to make such as birthdate and gender. However, once you start looking a names and addresses, the possibility of mis-spelling arises. We are particularly interested in an SQL Server solution, but an NPR solution would be acceptable as well.
