DCN definition
Examples of DCN in a sentence
While other information in an input record may have changed in the response record, the DCN will not.
Required fields include the Surname of Covered Individual, First Initial, Date of Birth, Sex code, a DCN assigned by the VDSA partner, Transaction Type, Coverage Type, Individual’s SSN, Effective Date, and Termination Date.
Partner Assigned DCN ▇▇ ▇▇▇-▇▇▇ The Document Control Number assigned by the VDSA partner.
Consequently, using the DCN will always allow a VDSA partner to match and link an input record with its corresponding response record.
On the Non-MSP Input File record layout the DCN field is Number 19.
For Non-Reporting records the following fields are required in addition to action type: • Medicare ID (HICN or MBI) or SSN • Surname • First initial • Date of birth • Sex (DCN and middle initial can be populated if available.) When a non-MSP ‘D’ record is received with a coverage type that indicates there is prescription drug coverage (U, V, W, X, Y, Z, 4, 5, 6), the BCRC will attempt to create an RX transaction.
The DCN Control Plane implements mechanisms to provide Quality of Service according to the specific characteristics of the different services types, adopting techniques for bandwidth allocation r latency and resiliency policies to ensure a pre-determined service level.
In the Virtual Data Centre use case, the DCN Control Plane provides on-demand virtual optical infrastructures with a given set of capabilities and a certain level of programmability exposed through open APIs. This programmability allows the Virtual Infrastructure Operator (VIO) who operate the VDC to dynamically control the bandwidth allocation, within the boundaries of the virtual optical resources available in its own VDC.
In this regard, SDN accelerates business innovation since DC operators can dynamically program the DCN to meet business needs and user requirements as they arise.
The DCN Control Plane is able to translate these requirements into appropriate network configuration at the optical data plane.
