Hi, I found the term and code in the NDF-RT dictionary, but I am still getting errors in Pinnacle 21. Is the dictionary up to date?

TSVAL=Antibodies, Monoclonal and TSVALCD=N0000011174. Does anyone know why I am still getting errors in the Pinnacle 21 report?

Thanks.

PCLAS and RESTful web services

There is an excellent RESTful web service available by the National Library of Medicine (NLM) for validating NDF-RT codes. See: https://rxnav.nlm.nih.gov/NdfrtAPIREST.html
It would be great if the validator would implement this web service, so that one always has the latest codes available and is not dependent anymore of a (probably outdated) file.

SD2263, sd2264 and SD2265

I am also getting errors on the entries of TSVAL=Antibodies, Monoclonal and TSVALCD=N0000011174.

Is this a known bug in the system?

PCLASS error

Maybe I did not explain clearly enough...
The list with NDF-RT entries as it is in the Pinnacle21 distribution is the one from when the validator was released (september 2016?). This is of course not the latest state, as NLM (National Library of Medicine) is updating this list continously. That is why I made the (strong) suggestion that the software should use the RESTful web service (instead of keeping the list as a file within the distribution) that is provided by the NLM, so that users always query the latest state of NDF-RT.
Very probably, entry N0000011174 was added to NDF-RT AFTER the Pinnacle21 software release.
