ADT^A46
ADT/ACK - Change patient ID (for backward compatibility only)
Patient Administration
Event A46 has been retained for backward compatibility only, corresponding with PID-2 - Patient ID, which is also retained for backward compatibility. From V2.3.1 onwards, event A47 (change patient identifier list) should be used instead. A change has been done at the patient identifier level. That is, a PID-2 - Patient ID has been found to be incorrect and has been changed.
An A46 event is used to signal a change of an incorrectly assigned PID-2 - Patient ID value. The _incorrect source patient ID_ value is stored in the MRG segment (MRG-4 - Prior Patient ID) and is to be changed to the _correct target patient ID_ value stored in the PID segment (PID-2 - Patient ID).
