 * Took out language stating “Order placers shall include the Laboratory’s local test order code, as provided in eDOS (Laboratory Test Compendium) and the Laboratory’s test name in the electronic order they submit to the laboratory.”
 * Included a separate header
 * “In addition, LOINC SHALL be used as the standard vocabulary to identify the ordered test in the Universal Service Identifier (OBR-4), if an appropriate orderable LOINC code exists. If an appropriate orderable LOINC code exists, it SHOULD be sent along with a LOINC test description as defined in the published LOINC specification.”
 * One suggestion by the WG is to include a definitions section
 * SHOULD and SHALL indicate that a statement will appear as a conformance statement in the IG
 * Regarding eDOS, the group said “It is recommended that the laboratory provide the equivalent orderable LOINC code in its eDOS (electronic Directory of Service/Test Compendium) along with the local laboratory order code and test name for offered tests…The LOINC test description may be provided by the laboratory as part of the eDOS or obtained from Regenstrief ([|www.loinc.org]) or another source.”
 * The Vocabulary WG will make a recommendation to the eDOS WG
 * In Table OBR-4 Universal Service Identifier, LOI Usage of Text has been changed to RE
