queue zipque_zip

The postal ZIP code associated with a work item in a healthcare workflow queue, such as the patient's address, service location, or facility location tied to a pending claim, referral, or authorization request. Used for geographic routing, network validation, and reporting purposes.

radiologist approval statusrad_appr_sts

The credentialing or authorization state indicating whether a radiologist has been approved to interpret imaging studies within a specific facility, health system, or payer network. Tracks privileging status to ensure only credentialed radiologists sign off on diagnostic imaging reports submitted for clinical or billing use.

radiologist charge amountrad_chrg_amt

The billed charge associated with professional services rendered by a radiologist for interpreting diagnostic imaging studies such as X-rays, MRIs, or CT scans. Captured at the claim or encounter level and used in revenue cycle management, fee schedule validation, and reimbursement analysis.

radiologist group numberrad_grp_nbr

The unique identifier assigned to a radiology practice group for billing, contracting, or claims submission purposes. Used to associate individual radiologists with their practice entity on professional claims, enabling payer routing, reimbursement processing, and network participation tracking.

radiologist medical record numberrad_mrn

Unique identifier assigned to a radiologist within a medical imaging or hospital system, used to track the interpreting physician across radiology studies, PACS systems, and RIS platforms. Links imaging orders, reports, and reads to the responsible radiologist for quality assurance and credentialing audits.

radiologist scheduled daterad_sched_dt

The calendar date on which a radiologist is scheduled to perform or interpret imaging studies, including MRI, CT, X-ray, or ultrasound procedures. Used in radiology information systems to manage reading schedules, on-call assignments, and workflow distribution across imaging departments.

radiologist scheduled timerad_sched_tm

The specific clock time at which a radiologist is assigned to begin reading or performing imaging procedures within a radiology department. Used in RIS and scheduling platforms to coordinate imaging workflow, manage reading queues, and ensure timely report turnaround for ordered studies.

radiologist street addressrad_st_addr

The physical street address of a radiologist, used for credentialing, billing, and provider directory maintenance. Captured in provider enrollment records to support accurate claims routing, referral directories, and compliance with payer and regulatory requirements for radiologist contact information.

radiology addressrad_addr

The physical location text identifying where a medical imaging service was performed or where a radiology provider practice is situated, stored in RIS, EHR, and claims systems. Used in provider directory management, claims adjudication, and network adequacy reporting to associate imaging services with specific facility or mobile unit locations for billing and credentialing purposes.

radiology effective daterad_eff_dt

The date marking the start of an active radiology service authorization or order in EHR, RIS, and claims systems. Used to validate imaging service eligibility, enforce prior authorization windows, and establish the billing period for radiology procedures in payer and provider data workflows.

radiology unitrad_unt

The standardized measurement unit assigned to a medical imaging service line in EHR, claims, and RIS systems. Used to quantify radiology procedures such as X-ray, MRI, or CT scans for billing, utilization tracking, and reimbursement calculations in healthcare data pipelines.

range scheduled daterng_sched_dt

The calendar date on which a reference range or normal value limit is scheduled to take effect within a laboratory or clinical decision support system. Used to manage versioned reference intervals that change based on updated clinical guidelines, instrument calibration cycles, or patient population criteria.

range scheduled timerng_sched_tm

The specific clock time at which an updated reference range or normal value limit is scheduled to activate within a laboratory information system or clinical decision support platform. Enables precise cutover management when transitioning between reference intervals for lab result interpretation and alerting.

range unitrng_unt

The unit of measure associated with a reference range or normal value limit for a laboratory or clinical observation, such as mg/dL, mmol/L, or beats per minute. Defines the measurement scale against which patient results are compared to determine normal, abnormal, or critical value classifications.

record active indicatorrec_actv_ind

A binary flag indicating whether a specific data record is currently active and valid for use in clinical, administrative, or billing workflows. Used in healthcare data systems to distinguish current records from those that have been voided, superseded, or logically deleted without physical removal from the database.

record active statusrec_actv_sts

A coded value representing the current operational state of a data record within a healthcare information system, such as active, inactive, suspended, or archived.
