sponsors SSN. Enter the first seven digits and the
ninth digit of the sponsors SSN on the top right portion
of the jacket. Using a l-inch long, 1/2-inch wide strip
of black tape, tape over the number that corresponds to
the last digit of the SSN in each of the two number
scales.
The tape must completely blacken out the
number and extend around the edge of the jacket to the
back.
Patients Without SSNs
For patients who do not have an SSN (e.g., foreign
personnel and their family members), create a
substitute SSN by coding the first three digits with
800 and the last six digits as the month, day, and year of
the patients birth (i.e., MM-DD-YY). As an example
for a patient who was born on July 10, 1945, assign
SSN 800-07-1045. For patients with the same birth
date, assign the first three digits sequentially starting
with 801, followed by the birth date. Select a
prenumbered NAVMED 6150/21-30 jacket, matching
the second to the last number of the patients
substitute SSN, and complete the jacket from the
instructions in this section.
