Guide for Use
Code 1 - Used where a business unit, section or division within an organisation may have its own separate identity.
Code 2 - 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 used only for trading purposes.
Code 4 - 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 - A short name or an abbreviated name by which the organisation is known, e.g. HIC
Code 6 - 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 - Used when the organisation name does not fit into any one of the categories listed above.
Code 9 - Used when the organisation name type is unknown.
At least one organisation name must be recorded for each organisation and each name must have an appropriate Organisation name type.
