I'm trying to figure out a way of determing if a particular date is within a date range.  For example in the dataset below.  I want to see if Person ID 1 was covered on Oct 1, 2014.   Is there an easy way to figure this out?

 

Person ID           Date Begin             Date End            Program

1                          01/01/2014           09/30/2014         AD

1                          11/01/2014           12/31/2014         BB

Sure. How do you want to deal with multiple records per ID? Also, is it possible to have missing values? If so, the logic would need to be adjusted.

 

if date_start <= "01Oct2014"d <= date_end then coverage=1;
else coverage=0;
