| GENERAL DESCRIPTION |
The PCE Patient/IHS Subset (PXPT) package request
permission to directly access the zeroth node of the ^DPT global for the
PATIENT MERGED TO field. This field is checked in screening logic on the
PATIENT/IHS file. This field is used by IHS in their PATIENT MERGE
application. By documenting this dependency on the PATIENT MERGE TO field by
IHS, this agreement serves to show a current dependency based on Joint Sharing
of the Patient File (2) and the Patient/IHS file (9000001). The Patient/IHS
file is distributed in the VA by the PCE Patient/IHS Subset (PXPT) package.
When the VA determines how it will use the PATIENT MERGE TO field, a
modification to this agreement may be needed.
