Hi,
I'm having trouble with MESA test 11350 using the bridge. It's a patient
demographics query where you're supposed to query on the patient's last
name and their date of birth. In the web service request I send to the
bridge, here's the relevant portions:
<tns2:patientDateOfBirth>19380224</tns2:patientDateOfBirth >
and
<tns2:patientName>
<tns2:familyName>MOORE</tns2:familyName>
In the QPD-3 "demographics field" of the HL7 message the bridge sends,
there is the value:
@PID.5.1^MOORE~@PID.7.1^19380224
The MESA eval script says this is wrong, that the value should be:
@PID.5.1^MOORE~@PID.7^19380224
In the HL7 2.5 spec, the PID segment's Date Of Birth field has two
subcomponents. The time and the precision. So I think the message the
bridge is sending is correct, but I think you could also write it as the
MESA test does since the second subcomponent is not specified. I'm not
very knowledgeable about HL7 though, so does anyone know if one or both
are correct?
thanks,
Jesse
