contained in this file are derived from a national list of laboratory
procedures.

This file is updated as needed from VACO Pathology. THIS FILE SHOULD NOT BE
EDITED BY FILEMAN AT THE LOCAL LEVEL.

Utilities are provided for local sites to manipulate distributed file data to
meet their needs. If a site determines a procedure which they perform is not
in this file, they are to contact VACO pathology for procedures to obtain new
entries. When attempting to look up data in this file, do not use commas, dash
hyphens or slash. AS A GENERAL RULE THE SYNONYM FIELD HAS THE FIRST WORD AND
THE SECOND WORD OF A PROCEDURE REVERSED TO PERMIT EASIER LOOK UP. YOU MAY
LOOKUP DATA USING EITHER UP OR LOWER CASE NAMES.

TECHNICAL DESCR:   The entries from 0-99999 are nationally distributed
procedures The entries above 99999 are additional procedures required by this
site to report LMIP/Workload data. Data found between 0-99999 will be
periodically purged/over written during file updating with addition procedure
codes.

North Chicago Order Portability software accesses this
file when transforming Lab Orders from DoD for storage into VistA.

All access to this file is read only, through the specific RPCs "DSIC DDR GETS
ENTRY DATA" and "DSIC FM LIST" that allow Java code to access VistA data
through FileMan.

DSIC DDR GETS ENTRY DATA is used by orders processing services in the VA ESB
to obtain information on laboratory orders, particularly to identify the LOINC
and workload codes associated with a given lab test.
