using COUNTIFS and Contains when referencing different sheets

Trying to count following:

Any row on reference sheet in the applications column that is equal to "EpicCare Acute", Training Impact Column ="High" and Role column contains "MD" (it is Text data type with entries separated by columns, not multiple select dropdown). I have tried everything and works fine until I use Contains. The contains column that I am referencing is not contact list type as I saw that was an issue in an earlier post. Any help appreciated.

=COUNTIFS({Copy of Nova Note Combined Applications 2}, "EpicCare Acute", {Copy of Nova Note Combined Training Impact}, "High", {Copy of Nova Note Combined Role}, (CONTAINS("MD", {Copy of Nova Note Combined Role})))

    John, try replacing your last {Copy of Nova Note Combined Role} in the contains with @cell. That should do the trick. So your formula should look like this:

    =COUNTIFS({Copy of Nova Note Combined Applications 2}, "EpicCare Acute", {Copy of Nova Note Combined Training Impact}, "High", {Copy of Nova Note Combined Role}, (CONTAINS("MD", @cell)))

    I hope this helps.
