Therefore, outlets associated with UCC 560410 will not be used in the CPI starting 2021. If CE wanted to bypass outlet questions when MEDPNOUT is 1 (Inside the home), then it will not be a loss of outlet data to CPI 12/15/2020: Update skip instructions to remove outlet questions when (MDB_ITEM = 5 and MEDPNOUT = 1)	Skip Instructions: C: Goto COMBCODE EMPTY: IF [(ITEM = 1, 2, 3, 5, 6 or 12) and (RT10.POPGRP = 7, 8, 07 or 08)] OR [ITEM = 10 and (RT10.POPGRP = 15 or 16)] OR [(ITEM = 13, 14 or 15) and (RT10.POPGRP = 11 or 12)] then goto MDBSTORE ELSE goto MORE IF anything other than 'C' or blank is entered then goto CK_C	Skip Instructions: C: Goto COMBCODE EMPTY: IF [(ITEM = 1, 2, 3, 6 or 12) and (RT10.POPGRP = 7, 8, 07 or 08)] OR [(ITEM=5 and MEDPNOUT=2) and (RT10.POPGRP = 7, 8, 07 or 08)] OR [ITEM = 10 and (RT10.POPGRP = 15 or 16)] OR [(ITEM = 13, 14 or 15) and (RT10.POPGRP = 11 or 12)] then goto MDBSTORE ELSE goto MORE IF anything other than 'C' or blank is entered then goto CK_C
