DESCRIPTION
This file contains the statuses an imaging exam may be in, as it
            should be asked of the user when trying to move an exam
            into the status.
 
          o fields that indicate to the various workload report
            routines whether an exam in a particular exam status
            should be used in the compilation of the report
 
When the system is initialized, the following statuses and
their 'order' in the exam process are loaded into this file:
 
is processed.
         Order            Status
         -----            ------
          1               WAITING FOR EXAM
          2               CALLED FOR EXAM
          3               EXAMINED
          4               TRANSCRIBED
          9               COMPLETE
          0               CANCELLED
 
The site does not have to use this configuration.  The only requirements
 
of the system are the following:
 
          o there must be a status with an order of '1'; this is the
            status that the module will place an exam in upon registration.
 
          o there must be a status with an order of '9'; when an exam
            reaches this status then the module considers the exam
            complete and the exam can no longer be called up by case
            number; also the case number can then be reused.
 
The fields in this file generally fall into three basic categories:
          o there must be a status with an order of '0' and it must
            be called 'CANCELLED'.
 
 Data Storage
 ------------
The data for the EXAMINATION STATUS' file is stored in the ^RA(72,
global. At the present time this file is very static after day-one
initialization is complete.  However, it still should be journaled.
It should also be translated if the operating system supports this function.
