Give Code
2020-01-06
Definition: This field identifies the medical substance or treatment that has been ordered to be given to the patient, as encoded by the pharmacy or treatment supplier; it is equivalent to OBR-4-universal service ID in function. In the RXE segment, this give code must be fully encoded. The dispense fields, which define the units and amount of what is to be issued to the patient (see RXE-10-dispense amount and RXE-11-dispense units below) do not necessarily correlate with the instructions of what amount is to be "given" or administered with each dose, and may or may not be specified with the order. For example, the "give" part of the order may convey the field-representation of give 250 mg of Ampicillin, while the request to dispense part of the order may convey issue 30 tablets of generic equivalent for this outpatient prescription.
The coding system used is conditional on both the nature of the medical substance or treatment ordered and site-specific implementation considerations. For vaccines, HL7 Table 0292 – Vaccines Administered is the preferred coding system. For non-vaccine products, the coding system may be a local implementation of User-defined Table 0479 – Pharmaceutical Substances or an external coding system. Examples of external coding systems include, but are not limited to, National Drug Codes (NDC), Medispan Generic Product Identifier (MGPI), Drug Descriptor Identifier (DDID), and other drug codes listed in HL7 Table 0396 – Coding Systems. The following examples illustrate some code tables other than User-defined Table 0479:
