Imprivata APG Reference
Patient Full Name
The Imprivata APG parses a full name entry to populate the First Name and Last Name fields in the database, according to the following entry rules:
| Full name entry | Example | Stored as |
|---|---|---|
| FirstName LastName | Alphonse Fontana | Alphonse Fontana |
| LastName, FirstName | Jones, Willa | Willa Jones |
| Prefix FirstName LastName | Mr. Cecil Lu | Cecil Lu |
| Prefix FirstName Last-Name | Dr. Monica Hadley-Smythe | Monica Hadley-Smythe |
| Prefix FirstName LastName Suffix | Mr. Kieran Dow Jr | Kieran Dow |
| Prefix FirstName Last-Name Suffix | Mr. Jorge Ortiz-Habrera II | Jorge Ortiz-Habrera |
| FirstName LastName Suffix | Lucinda Wen PhD | Lucinda Wen |
| FirstName Last-Name | Veronique Michaud-LaSalle | Veronique Michaud-LaSalle |
| Last-Name, FirstName | Alves-Duarte, Remy | Remy Alves-Duarte |
| FirstName LastName LastName | Georgiana Larson Williamson | Georgiana Williamson |
If the full name entry cannot be parsed into separate First Name and Last Name field entries, the fields are left blank in the database and displayed as Not available. Any incomplete or missing entries in the database First Name and Last Name fields can be updated by HL7 feeds or with the Imprivata PatientSecure Admin Console.
Patient Date of Birth
The Imprivata APG extracts a date from the Date of Birth field, ignoring any other, non-date text that appears in the field, according to the date format you specify:
- M = month (Be sure to use an upper-case M; lower-case m represents minutes.)
- d = day
- y = year
The single month and day variables (M and d) recognize both one- and two-digit entries. Three or four month and day variables together represent the spelled-out month or day.
Date of birth entries in Imprivata APG must match the syntax used in the application being captured. For example, a date displayed as 06/21/1975 could be entered in the APG as MM/d/yyyy.
For more information on date format options, see Custom Date and Time Format Strings on the Microsoft Developer Network website.
Patient ID Label
The patient ID label must match the label set up by the Administrator in the PatientSecure Admin Console, including case.
