LOINC code69969-4
name
descriptionThe use of ZNB or NTE segments for report boilerplate information, such as the list of conditions tested, is not recommended because receiving organizations may not know how to process the data. This LOINC code for Newborn Screening Report Overall Laboratory Comment enables sending this data in an OBX segment. If you send a list of conditions tested or another list, we suggest you use semicolons instead of commas to separate conditions in a list to avoid problems if the condition names contain commas.
