The majority of patients seen at our STD Clinic prefer not to give there true name. Often times, they are recorded with only their initials and/or an alias. I've been trying to figure out how to do this in VistA. I thought that if I admit each patient as Doe,John (Doe,Jane) I would then be able to enter the patients initials/alias. However, I am not able to admit more than one Doe,John. My question is, how does VistA handle multiple patients with the same name, and more importantly, how can it handle Non-Nominal data?
