File 9000001 is dinumed so the IEN is the same as the IEN of file 2.
Logically in many respects the two files are a lot like one file. In file
9000001 the HRN is a multiple that is linked to location. The location is
stored in variable DUZ(2). There can be only one HRN for each location. If
the SSN is already stored for the location as the HRN value, you need to
change that HRN to the new one or store it in a new location.

Subject: [Hardhats-members] PATIENT/IHS Health Record Number question
I have been given to understand that the PATIENT/IHS (file 9000001) Health
Record Number is the correct place to store a patient ID from a non-VISTA
practice management system. However, the PATIENT/IHS record seems to be
linked to the PATIENT record only by name, which is not unique. Am I
missing
something here? Is there in fact some unique link from PATIENT/IHS to
PATIENT?
Also, is there some way in which the VA Fileman Import Data function can
be
used to import an external patient ID into a PATIENT/IHS record? In
playing
around with this, I've found that it seems not to want to create a new
PATIENT/IHS record from the import data because a PATIENT/IHS record
already
exists containing the Social Security Number (which record is
automatically
created during import of the PATIENT data).
