RCP segment

The RCP segment is used to restrict the amount of data that should be returned in response to query. 5.5.6.0 RCP field definitions 5.5.6.1 RCP-1 Query Priority (ID) 00027 Definition: This field contains the time frame in which the response is expected. Refer to HL7 Table 0091 - Query priority for valid values. Table values and subsequent fields specify time frames for response. HL7 Table 0091 - Query priority

required in some cases optional kept for older systems, still counted

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 RCP-2 and its value arrives as RCP-1, so the receiver stores Quantity Limited Request as Query Priority.

This page carries the RCP 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 RCP.
