HISTORICAL CHANGES

10/10/07

Changed length to 28 per a software vendor's request to allow full spelling of city names with greater than 20 characters from getting truncated. Handling this item like Medical Record No until NAACCR increases the length of this field. A different item name (Addr_DX_City USPS) will be in the transmit format in Volume II (and keep the standard one in its spot) and it will be truncated in the standard NAACCR spot when we have to submit cases to SEER, NPCR, other states. Eureka Screens: Display the 28-character Addr_DX_City only.

2010

2010 Data Changes:  CCR name (Addr_DX_City) changed to NAACCR name. Length changed from 28 to 50. Updated SOURCE logic by replacing a software vendor's item numbers with data item names.
