In HTML doc, Initial Patient Population 2 states below
OR: "Occurrence A of Medication, Active: ADHD Medications (cumulative medication duration >= 210 day(s))" starts after start of "Occurrence A of Medication, Dispensed: ADHD Medications"
OR: "Occurrence A of Medication, Active: ADHD Medications (cumulative medication duration >= 210 day(s))" starts concurrent with "Occurrence A of Medication, Dispensed: ADHD Medications"
whereas Denominator exclusion 2 states below
Medication, Active: ADHD Medications" <= 120 day(s) starts before start of "Occurrence A of Medication, Dispensed: ADHD Medications"
So if a patient has Medication, Active: ADHD Medications which starts before Medication, Dispensed: ADHD Medication then the patient would get excluded from Initial Population criteria and would never fall under Denominator exclusion .
Kindly suggest if the above understanding is correct
