To allow codes to be maintained by HL7 Medical Records Chart message action, make sure the following requirements are met:
-
HL7 messages must contain the code and description in the same HL7 field. For example: DRG|code^description|||.
-
The HL7 message template must be configured to read the code and description as separate components within the same field. For example, for DRGs, configure DRG.1.1 for the DRG code and DRG.1.2 for the DRG description.
-
The chart data field for the code must specify the first component of the associated HL7 field, not the entire HL7 field. For example, the HL7 reference field for the Diagnosis Code chart data field must be set to DG1.3.1, not DG1.3. Otherwise, codes will not be created properly.
