To display a patient's race, use the following tag:

{{race}}

A patient's race can be recorded using the OnBase HL7 module. To configure the HL7 module to record a patient's race, do the following:

  1. Assign the Patient Race Code chart data field to the appropriate HL7 field.
  2. Configure one of the following HL7 message actions to process messages containing patient race information:

    • Medical Records Chart

    • Patient Record Processor

  3. Ensure messages provide the race information in the HL7 field you mapped to the Patient Race Code chart data field. Values should be provided in one of the following formats: 
    Race Code^Race Description^HL7 Root
    Race Code^Race Description

    For example, if the import processor encounters this value for the patient race field, the patient's race will be displayed in the banner as ASIAN.
