Questions about primary care data #3

Closed RoyeSie closed 1 year ago

RoyeSie commented 1 year ago

I would like to ask a question about gp_registrations/clinical/scripts.txt. These three files correspond to three Fields, should I write each of these three columns as a txt file?

These .txt files are downloaded from UK Biobank. See the instructions in section 7.2 of resource 591.

Save them on your system and then update reg_path, events_path and scripts_path in file_paths.R with the location of each file. You do not need to process the .txt files first.

Thanks for your reply, I will start trying to download EHR data. Thanks for your help.
