PDA segment

This segment carries information on a patient’s death and possible autopsy. 3.4.12.0 PDA field definitions 3.4.12.1 PDA-1 Death Cause Code (CE) 01574 Definition: This field is valued with the reason of the death. 3.4.12.2 PDA-2 Death Location (PL) 10575 Definition: This field is valued with the place the death occurred.

optional

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 PDA-2 and its value arrives as PDA-1, so the receiver stores Death Location as Death Cause Code.

This page carries the PDA 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 PDA.
