Sub-order Results Delivery [LAB-36]

Sub-order Results Delivery [LAB-36] - the Subcontractor returns the results of a sub-order to the Requester, which then includes them in its own results to the Order Result Tracker (LAB-3). See Inter-Laboratory Workflow (ILW).

HL7 v2.5.1 Message

ORU^R01, with the same structure as LAB-3. In addition:

• OBR-2 is the Requester's sub-order number and OBR-3 the Subcontractor's laboratory number
• OBR-29 Parent SHOULD repeat the original order (from LAB-35 ORC-8)
• OBX-23 / OBX-24 / OBX-25 SHALL identify the Subcontractor as the performing laboratory, and SHALL be kept by the Requester when it reports the result onward in LAB-3 (FHIR: Observation.performer stays the Subcontractor; the Requester is the DiagnosticReport.performer of its own report)

FHIR Message

The same Laboratory Result (R01) message as LAB-3.
