ORG segment

The ORG segment relates a practitioner to an organization unit and adds detailed information regarding the practitioner's practicing specialty in that organization unit. An ORG segment may optionally follow an STF segment. An ORG segment must always have been preceded by a corresponding STF segment. If no organization unit is specified, this segment is used to relate practitioners with their practicing specialties, including effective and end dates. When it is not necessary to record organization unit or dates associated with the practicing specialty, this data is recorded in PRA-3-Practitioner Category.

Count the pipes to find a field, and count the empty ones too: an empty field still holds its place. Leave out the separator before ORG-3 and its value arrives as ORG-2, so the receiver stores Organization Unit Type Code as Organization Unit Code.

This page carries the ORG field table as published and nothing beyond it. The field notes, vendor behaviour, FHIR mapping and parsing guidance that thePID page has are still to be written for ORG.
