Thanks.

What I’m doing is actually find out what the receiving system accounting system is expecting because I have 3 vendors sending charges in different formats in the FT1;11 price field !

Thanks Jim !

I was thinking of telling the receiving system what to expect in FT1;11 based on the CP data type.  I guess I can’t do that now.

All I need is to have them agree on a format and then I’ll send whatever format we agree on.

Now I understand that CP data type can contain decimal point.  What if the decimal point is not included ?  

Example:

If FT1;11 (Total Price) = 28530 without any decimal point

Does that mean that this field is actually $28530.00 or $285.30 ?

I just need to confirm this.

Thank you

Hi Jim,

I’ve further question on this.

If the patient has a Primary home phone and a Cell phone, PID;13 will look like this right ?

|718)428-3333^PRN^PH~(212)111-1111^ORN^CP|    

OR

|^PRN^PH^^^718^428^3333~^ORN^CP^^^212^111^1111 |

OR

|(718)428-3333^PRN^PH^^^718^428^3333~(212)111-1111^ORN^CP^^^212^111^1111|

Please advise.

If 2.3 or higher, PID-13 is an XTN type field. With that there is a component which describes the type of Telecommunication equipment and CP is for Cell Phone.

For backward compatability the first occurence of the field is the primary telephone number (but could be Cell or other). Also the telephone number itself is to be formatted or componetized such as:

(718)428-3333^PRN^PH
