Definition: This field is a CWE data type that identifies a standard HL7 master file. This table may be extended by local agreement during implementation to cover site-specific master files (z-master files). HL7 recommends use of the HL7 assigned table number as the master file identifier code if one is not specified in Table 0175. For example, a master file of Marital Status codes would be identified by HL70002 as the MFI-1 - Master file identifier. Refer to HL7 Table 0175 - Master File Identifier Code in Chapter 2C, Code Tables, for valid values.
Definition: This field contains an optional code of up to 180 characters which (if applicable) uniquely identifies the application responsible for maintaining this file at a particular site. A group of intercommunicating applications may use more than a single instance of a master file of certain type (e.g., charge master or physician master). The particular instance of the file is identified by this field. Refer to User-defined table 0361 - Applications.
Definition: This field defines the file-level event code. Refer to HL7 Table 0178 - File Level Event Code in Chapter 2C, Code Tables, for valid values.
Definition: This field contains the date/time for the file-level event on originating system.
Definition: This optional field contains the effective date/time, which can be included for file-level action specified. It is the date/time the originating system expects that the event is to have been completed on the receiving system. If this field is not present, the action date/time should default to the current date/time (when the message is received).
Definition: These codes specify the application response level defined for a given Master File Message at the MFE segment level as defined in HL7 Table 0179 - Response Level in Chapter 2C, Code Tables. Required for MFN-Master File Notification message. Specifies additional detail (beyond MSH-15 - Accept Acknowledgment Type and MSH-16 - Application Acknowledgment Type) for application-level acknowledgment paradigms for Master Files transactions. MSH-15 - Accept Acknowledgment Type and MSH-16 - Application Acknowledgment Type operate as defined in Chapter 2.
