Try looking at chapter 16 in the Kernel Systems Manual here http://www.va.gov/vdl/VistA_Lib/Infrastructure/Kernel/krn8_0sm.pdf SUBTYPE: P-HFS/80/9 HFS 80 COL WIDE 9 LINES is probably what is sending it to the terminal. If that doesn't work, wait for an expert to answer you!

To the extent feasible that is already in place in VistA. Note that some codes (actually, many codes) do not have a one-to-one correspondence, so some codes in one system or the other may have one-to-many or one-to-none relationships. Also note that as CPT codes themselves are copyrighted and

From Health IT Strategist, this article talking about what AHIC is doing suggests that HL7 and ASTM are going to come up with the CCD, merging the CCR and the HL7 CDA standards. Let's hope there is no bloodshed and it doesn't take too long so we will have something to shoot to implement.
