### Root Cause

The root cause of this problem is due to the addition of other programs into the UgandaEMR system by an individual( which is prohibited ) that is done by creation of concepts and thereby resulting into concept mismatch with concepts that come with UgandaEMR.

### Resolution

1. Download the concept dictionary from the source <https://sourceforge.net/projects/ugandaemr/files/1.0.13/concept_dictonary_ref_1.0.13.sql/download>
2. Open your command Prompt and login to mysql with the following command without quotes "mysql -u openmrs -p" and provide it with the required password
3. Run the concept dictionary downloaded on your database in your command prompt
4. After the concept dictionary is done, run the following script on the same command prompt

   ```sql
   /*!40101 SET @OLD_CHARACTER_SET_CLIENT = @@CHARACTER_SET_CLIENT */;
   /*!40101 SET @OLD_CHARACTER_SET_RESULTS = @@CHARACTER_SET_RESULTS */;
   /*!40101 SET @OLD_COLLATION_CONNECTION = @@COLLATION_CONNECTION */;
   /*!40101 SET NAMES utf8 */;
   /*!40103 SET @OLD_TIME_ZONE = @@TIME_ZONE */;
   /*!40103 SET TIME_ZONE = '+00:00' */;
   /*!40014 SET @OLD_UNIQUE_CHECKS = @@UNIQUE_CHECKS, UNIQUE_CHECKS = 0 */;
   /*!40014 SET @OLD_FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS = @@FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS, FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS = 0 */;
   /*!40101 SET @OLD_SQL_MODE = @@SQL_MODE, SQL_MODE = 'NO_AUTO_VALUE_ON_ZERO' */;
   /*!40111 SET @OLD_SQL_NOTES = @@SQL_NOTES, SQL_NOTES = 0 */;

   DELETE from patient_program ;
   DELETE from program;

   /*!40101 SET SQL_MODE=@OLD_SQL_MODE */;
   /*!40014 SET FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS=@OLD_FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS */;
   /*!40014 SET UNIQUE_CHECKS=@OLD_UNIQUE_CHECKS */;
   /*!40101 SET CHARACTER_SET_CLIENT=@OLD_CHARACTER_SET_CLIENT */;
   /*!40101 SET CHARACTER_SET_RESULTS=@OLD_CHARACTER_SET_RESULTS */;
   /*!40101 SET COLLATION_CONNECTION=@OLD_COLLATION_CONNECTION */;
   /*!40111 SET SQL_NOTES=@OLD_SQL_NOTES */;
   ```
5. Restart your computer
