CS Version Derived

Field Length:  6

This field does not appear on the patient abstract, but is available for data analysis.  It is a computer assigned value which is recorded the first time the Collaborative Stage output fields are derived and is updated each time the CS Derived items are recalculated.  

The digits are stored as follows:

• The first two digits represent the major version number

• The third and fourth digit represent minor version changes

• The last two digits represent even less significant changes that do not affect coding
