Discussion

rhandler Oct 9, 2005:
What is the number size and structure? Do you think its a serial number or a code? This is important, believe me.
Laurence Auffret (asker) Oct 9, 2005:
Many thanks for offering to help
It is just below all details about the patient and does not have anything written underneath it.
Other sections are standard letter sections (adresses and references)and then the body of the letter.
rhandler Oct 9, 2005:
What are the nemes of the other sections, just before and after O.B.S.?

Brazilian Health Organization

Pode tratar-se do código da doença segundo a Organização Brasileira de Saúde, nos moldes do que também faz a Organização Mundial de Saúde (World Health Organization), para facilitar a referência a outros profissionais.

Há poucos sites com menção à O.B.S., mas estes dois o confirmam:

Here's a sample of the ICD:

Diseases of the musculoskeletal system and connective tissue
(M00-M99)

M00-M25 Arthropathies
M00-M03 Infectious arthropathies
M05-M14 Inflammatory polyarthropathies
M15-M19 Arthrosis
M20-M25 Other joint disorders

Does the number after O.B.S. have a similar structure?
