Need to add 3 months to each value within a column, based on the 1st '3 Months' calculated off the Admission Date column in T-SQL


I have 14K records table as the following (example of the data related to one particular client_id = 1002): (my date format is mm/dd/yyyy, months come first)

ClientsEpisodes:

      client_id      adm_date      disch_date    
          1002      3/11/2005        5/2/2005
          1002      8/30/2005       2/16/2007
          1002      3/16/2017            NULL

In SQL Server (T-SQL) - I need to calculate + 3 months date into the new column [3Month Date], where the 1st "+ 3 months" value will be calculated off my existing [adm_date] column. Then + 3 more months should be added to the value in [3Months Date], then the next 3 months should be added to the next value in the [3Months Date] column, and so on..., until [3MonthsDate] <= [disch_date]. When [3Months Date] is more than [disch_date] then the data shouldn't be populated. If my [disch_date] IS NULL then the condition should be [3Months Date] <= current date (whatever it is) from GETDATE() function.

Here is what I expect to see as a result: (I highlighted my dates offsets with different colors, for a better view)

enter image description here

Below, I'll clarify with more detailed explanation, about each populated (or not populated) data set:

My first [adm_date] from ClientsEpisode table was 3/11/2005. Adding 3 months: 3/11/2005 + 3 months = 6/11/2005 - falls AFTER the initial [disch_date] (5/2/2005) - not populated

   Next [adm_date] from ClientEpisode is 8/3/2005 + 3 Months = 11/30/2005; 
        then + 3 months must be added to 11/30/2005 = 2/30/2006; 
        then 2/30/2006 + 3 months = 5/30/2006; 
        then 5/30/2006 + 3 months = 8/30/2006; 
        then 8/30/2006 + 3 months = 11/30/2006;
        then 11/30/2006 + 3 months = 3/2/2007 - falls AFTER my [disch_date] 
                                                      (2/16/2007) - not populated

the same algorithm for the next [adm_date] - [disch_date] sets 11/5/2007-2/7/2009 (in dark blue).

then, where [adm_date] = 3/16/17, I have [disch_date] IS NULL, so, the algorithm applies until [3 Months Date] <= current date (10/15/2020 in this case)


Solution

  • You can use recursive common expression. Below is an example. Note, that you can change the DATEADD part with other (for example add 90 days if you want) - it's a matter of bussness logic.

    DECLARE @DataSource TABLE
    (
        [client_id] INT
       ,[adm_date] DATE
       ,[disch_date] DATE
    );
    
    INSERT INTO @DataSource ([client_id], [adm_date], [disch_date])
    VALUES (1002, '3/11/2005 ', '5/2/2005')
          ,(1002, '8/30/2005 ', '2/16/2007')
          ,(1002, '3/16/2017 ', NULL);
    
    WITH DataSource AS
    (
        SELECT ROW_NUMBER() OVER(ORDER BY [client_id]) AS [row_id]
              ,[client_id]
              ,[adm_date]
              ,DATEADD(MONTH, 3, [adm_date]) AS [3Month Date]
              ,ISNULL([disch_date], GETUTCDATE()) AS [disch_date]
        FROM @DataSource
        WHERE DATEADD(MONTH, 3, [adm_date]) <= ISNULL([disch_date], GETUTCDATE()) 
    ),
    RecursiveDataSource AS
    (
        SELECT [row_id]
              ,[client_id]
              ,[adm_date]
              ,[3Month Date]
              ,[disch_date]
              ,0 AS [level]
        FROM DataSource
        UNION ALL
        SELECT DS.[row_id]
              ,DS.[client_id]
              ,DS.[adm_date]
              ,DATEADD(MONTH, 3, RDS.[3Month Date])
              ,DS.[disch_date]
              ,[level] + 1
        FROM RecursiveDataSource RDS
        INNER JOIN DataSource DS
            ON RDS.[row_id] = DS.[row_id]
            AND DATEADD(MONTH, 3, RDS.[3Month Date]) < DS.[disch_date]
    )
    SELECT *
    FROM RecursiveDataSource
    ORDER BY [row_id]
            ,[level];
