• A. Facilities are required to report in two separate formats: 1) ED and AS format, and 2) Inpatient format. You may review the format and file specifications for each data type on the MIRCal Resources web page. Data files must be separate for each data type (e.g. one file for IP, one for ED, one for AS).
