^AUNPLK is the IHS version of the file 2 lookup routine. However, it is also the VOE lookup routine as well. ^AUPNLK does more than just check for duplicates. It also keeps files 2 and 9000001 in synch. It also utilizes the HRN from file 9000001 as a primary way of looking up patients. Do you want more specific information?

Kevin,
Have you already looked at using ^DPTLK or ^AUPNLK directly or indirectly to
help you look for possible duplicate patients?  If you use the classic
Fileman lookup
DO ^DIC
you will be using ^DPTLK. I do not know what the cost would be in terms of
possible echos that you would not want.  It might solve some of your
problems.  However, you may have thoroughly explored this issue already.

Jim, no I have not explored that.  I have heard of ^AUPNLK, but
thought that it had to do with the IHS version.  Can you tell me more
about it?

Kevin
