Guide for use:Help on this term

CODE 1     Organisation unit/section/division

This code is used where a business unit, section or division within an organisation may have its own separate identity.

CODE 2     Service location name

This code is used where the service location name is an important part of the organisation name and is used for identification purposes, e.g. Mobile Immunisation Unit at Bankstown.

CODE 3     Business name

Business name used only for trading purposes.

CODE 4     Locally used name

This code is used where a local name is used, e.g. where a medical practice is known by a name that is different to the company registration name or business name.

CODE 5     Abbreviated name

A short name or an abbreviated name by which the organisation is known, e.g. HIC.

CODE 6     Enterprise name

Generally, the complete organisation name should be used to avoid any ambiguity in identification. This should usually be the same as company registration name.

CODE 8     Other

This code is used when the organisation name does not fit into any one of the categories listed above.

CODE 9     Unknown
