Introduction
QuickSnap Native Format is a comprehensive file format which contains all the data items required to arrive at any SNAP class.
It is a CSV file format, and the data items and code sets are described below,
Using this file format will allow you to group both Overnight and Ambulatory (Same Day, Community and Outpatient) Episodes (and Palliative Care phases).
It uses the 'native' AN-SNAP code sets, which are described below. Please note that the 'native' AN-SNAP code sets are not the same as IPHA's DSS/DRS code sets, despite containing the same 'labels'.
If you have a data extract which conforms to the IPHA's DSS/DRS formats you should consider using the QuickSnap DSS Compatible Format. Be aware, however, that this format is only capable of grouping Overnight Episodes/Phases.
Sample Files
Here are some examples of the QuickSnap DSS Compatible file format:
- Excel Template: QuickSnap_Native_template.xlsx - this file contains a header row and is in Excel format - QuickSnap cannot process this file but it displays the column headers for each data item
- CSV Sample: QuickSnap_Native_sample.csv- this is a sample CSV file in QuickSnap DSS Compatible format - QuickSnap will be able to process this file
