What have we done?
(Internal Reference D10-14191)
Scotland will use the Scotland READ2 version for Clinical Coding if READ2 is selected at Organisation level
Why have we done this?

How will you benefit?

Details of the change
When Scotland sites migrate from DM7 to DM10, if they are using Read2, this will be set as their Clinical Code Type in the Organisation settings. Docman 10 coding logic will change as follows:
- If Clinical Code Type is "Read2" and site is Scotland - use Scotland READ2 table, otherwise use England READ2 table.
- If Clinical Code Type is "Snomed" - use Snomed table (there is no Scotland v England Snomed version).
