QRI segment

The QRI segment is used to indicate the weight match for a returned record (where the responding system employs a numeric algorithm) and/or the match reason code (where the responding system uses rules or other match options). Examples of the use of this segment appear in Section 3.3.57, "Find Candidates and Response." 5.5.5.0 QRI field definitions 5.5.5.1 QRI-1 Candidate Confidence (NM) 01436

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 QRI-2 and its value arrives as QRI-1, so the receiver stores Match Reason Code as Candidate Confidence.

This page carries the QRI 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 QRI.
