The FIN coding system is a generated code that identifies the coding system used by individual facilities (hospital, clinics, or other providers) submitting data to a registry. This field identifies the coding system used by facilities in the following seven fields of the NAACCR layout: Registry ID [40] (when Registry Type [30] = 3) Reporting Hospital [540] Institution Referred From [2410] Institution Referred To [2420] Last Follow-Up Hospital [2430] Following Registry [2440] Archive FIN [3100] Within a single NAACCR record, all of these fields must be coded using the same FIN coding system...
