RXO segment

This is the "master" pharmacy/treatment order segment. It contains order data not specific to components or additives. Unlike the OBR, it does not contain status fields or other data that are results-only. It can be used for any type of pharmacy order, including inpatient (unit dose and compound unit dose), outpatient, IVs, and hyperalimentation IVs (nutritional IVs), as well as other nonpharmacy treatments, e.g., respiratory therapy, oxygen, and many nursing treatments. In addition to the pharmaceutical/treatment information, this segment contains additional data such as

required in some cases 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 RXO-2 and its value arrives as RXO-1, so the receiver stores Requested Give Amount - Minimum as Requested Give Code.

This page carries the RXO 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 RXO.
