SAS coding

Can anyone show me how to accomplish this.

I want to count for each encounter number how many time the patient(ID) have ER list Y in the prior 6 month.

proc freq data=mydata(where=(date>='01NOV17'd));
    table encounternum*er;
run;

This assumes that "the last 6 months" begins on 01NOV17, if it is some other date then the change is obvious.

This is not what I wanted.

What I wanted is for every encounter Number, there is a date.

Check back 6 month from that date by ID and see if there is ER visit which is Y.

Show us an example. The data you provided does not seem to have an example.

ncounter Num	ID	Date	ER
1327819	1001	1/2/2017	Y
4390843	1001	2/8/2017	Y
239480	1001	5/4/2017	N

34575697	1003	11/8/2018	Y
3524341	1003	12/8/2018	N

In this table, the desire output would be (ER_Count not counting current one):

Encounter Num	ID	Date	ER	ER_Count
1327819	1001	1/2/2017	Y	0
4390843	1001	2/8/2017	Y	1
239480	1001	5/4/2017	N	2
43958345	1001	1/7/2018	N	0
390485903	1001	5/4/2018	N	0
323465354	1002	2/5/2017	Y	0
54332432	1002	6/8/2017	Y	1
7657657567	1002	9/8/2017	N	1
768698	1003	6/8/2017	Y	0
7567465	1003	8/9/2017	Y	1
23465758	1003	9/5/2017	N	2
35134346674	1003	10/9/2018	N	0

Try this.:

data _null_;

call symput('dt',put(intnx('day',today(),0),ddmmyy10.));

call symput('dtp6mon',put(intnx('month',today(),-6),ddmmyy10.));

run;

%put dt=&dt.;

%put dtp6mon=&dtp6mon.;

proc sql;

select Encounter_Num,ID,count(ER) as ER_Cnt

from tbl_name

group by Encounter_Num,ID

having ER='Y'

and date between "&dtp6mon."d and "&dt."d;

quit;

Re: SAS coding

allenye — Fri, 04 May 2018 14:25:11 GMT

any inputs?

Re: SAS coding

allenye — Fri, 04 May 2018 14:26:40 GMT

i want the ER_count on the encounters level, not ID

Re: SAS coding

allenye — Fri, 04 May 2018 14:28:11 GMT

your code only catches the last date with ER ='Y'

I want the output in the exact same format like the original table but adding a column counting the previous 6 month ER visit

I think the following does what you want. It uses the transpose macro ( which you can download from http://www.sascommunity.org/wiki/A_Better_Way_to_Flip_(Transpose)_a_SAS_Dataset ), but you could use proc transpose to make the file wide (but that would be a bit more complicated). To use the transpose macro, just download it, then run it, then run the following code:

data have;
  informat Encounter_Num $10.;
  informat date mmddyy10.;
  format date mmddyy10.;
  input Encounter_Num    ID  Date    ER $;
  cards;
1327819 1001    1/2/2017    Y
4390843 1001    2/8/2017    Y
239480  1001    5/4/2017    N
43958345    1001    1/7/2018    N
390485903   1001    5/4/2018    N
323465354   1002    2/5/2017    Y
54332432    1002    6/8/2017    Y
7657657567  1002    9/8/2017    N
768698  1003    6/8/2017    Y
7567465 1003    8/9/2017    Y
23465758    1003    9/5/2017    N
35134346674 1003    10/9/2018   N
34575697    1003    11/8/2018   Y
3524341 1003    12/8/2018   N
;

%transpose(data=have, out=need, by=id, Guessingrows=1000,
  delimiter=_, var=Encounter_Num Date ER)

data want (keep=Encounter_Num ID Date ER ER_Count);
  set need;
  array AEncounter_Num(*) $ Encounter_Num:;
  array ADate(*) Date:;
  array AER(*) $ ER:;
  format date mmddyy10.;
  do lastrec=1 to (dim(AEncounter_Num)-1);
    if missing(AEncounter_Num(lastrec+1)) then leave;
  end;
  do i=1 to lastrec;
    ER_Count=0;
    if i gt 1 then do;
      do j=1 to (i-1);
        if ADate(j) ge intnx('month',ADate(i),-6,'s') and AER(j) eq 'Y' then ER_Count+1;
      end;
    end;
    Encounter_Num=AEncounter_Num(i);
    Date=ADate(i);
    ER=AER(i);
    output;
  end;
run;
