A report’s generated time is not the time of every event listed within it.
- Source patient

This section identifies the source patient record and the local candidate, including the organizations that assign their identifiers.
Interpret an MRN together with its assigning authority. An identifier’s context matters when reviewing records from different organizations.
- Rule evaluated
- EXT-MATCH-03
- Current rule
- Legal first/last name + DOB + any 1 additional matching demographic
- Rule result
- Criteria met
- Disposition
- Automatically associated
- Manual review
- Not triggered under current rule
- Identifier cross-reference
- No established enterprise cross-reference
The rule documents what the system evaluated. The rule result records whether its criteria were met. The disposition and manual-review field show the resulting routing behavior.
Meeting an active rule is a recorded system outcome. Assessing whether the association is correct requires review beyond that outcome.

System note: Association was performed according to the active Springville external-record matching rule. No manual identity-review task was created at the time of association.
The comparison table preserves which source and local values agreed, differed, or lacked an established identifier relationship.
Read the individual comparisons alongside the rule result. A composite system result does not replace the underlying observations.
