Screen Changes in Direct Data Entry

Effective October 1, the AGE field on the MAP1781 DRG/Pricer Inquiry (37) screen is now display only.

To support this change, “date of birth (DOB)” is now a required field. Once DOB is entered, the AGE field will automatically calculate and display on the screen.

Please update any procedures or training materials that reference manual entry of the AGE field. If you have questions or concerns, please contact your DDE connectivity vendor.
