TECHNICAL DESCR: The data in this field is returned as the third piece from the call to RXST^IBARXEU and RXEXMT^IBARXEU0. Programmers can determine certain attributes from the code. Codes of 2 digits are reserved for exemption reasons
that can automatically be determined by the system but not based on income. Codes of 3 digits are reserved for exemptions based on income. Codes of 4 digits are reserved for exemptions that only can be manually entered
that would generally over-ride all other determinations.
