Hi Kathees,
This is actually correct behaviour. It's a somewhat confusing aspect of HL7
v2 at first, but HL7 reuses some message structures for multiple message
trigger events. For example, the ADT^A01 and ADT^A04 messages both need all
of the same data fields, so HL7 decided to reuse the ADT^A01 structure for
the ADT^A04 message. They call this structure ADT_A01 (note the
underscore).
MDM^T02 and MDM^T10 similarly share messages. The thing to note is the
message type and structure in MSH-9:
<MSH.9>
<MSG.1>MDM</MSG.1>
<MSG.2>T10</MSG.2>
<MSG.3>MDM_T02</MSG.3>
</MSH.9>
Cheers,
James
