Manual Check Digit
Method
If a facility uses a supported check digit algorithm when creang operator or
paent IDs, the i‑STAT Alinity can verify the entered ID format by calculang
the check digit and comparing it to the entered ID number. If the check digits
do not match, the ID is rejected.
Note: The i‑STAT Alinity System supports the Mod 10 and Mod 11
check digit algorithms described in the HL7 Table 0061 (Check Digit
Scheme) in the HL7 Specicaon (Rev 1.4). Contact your LIS/HIS or IT
departments to determine if your facility uses check digits in the
creaon of operator and/or paent ID numbers, and if so, which
algorithm is used.
Allowable values are:
No check digit on manual
entry
Do not use a check digit when creang
operator or paent IDs.
Mod 11 check digit on manual
entry
Use the Mod 11 algorithm when creang
operator or paent IDs.
Mod 10 check digit on manual
entry
Use the Mod 10 algorithm when creang
operator or paent IDs.
Scan Entry Check Digit
Method
Whether to use a check digit when scanning a value to create an operator or
paent ID.

entry
Use the Mod 11 algorithm when creang
operator or paent IDs.
