DescriptionThe **digital** National Genomic Test Directory codes, rolled out as the Test Directory itself went digital - replacing the legacy R-code/M-code style codes in [NHS England Genomic Test Code](CodeSystem-GenomicTestCode.html) (`$GTD`, `England-GenomicTestDirectory`) for new/migrated indications. Two code types share this one system, distinguished by prefix: - **TP (Test Package)** codes replace the old clinical-indication concept - a package of related genomic tests grouped by clinical condition. For example, 12 separate B-cell lymphoma clinical indications were consolidated into a single TP code. - **GT (Genomic/Genetic Test)** codes identify a single specific laboratory investigation (e.g. one BRCA gene test, one WGS test). For example, 17 separate DPYD test entries were consolidated into a single GT code. Both code types already appear together in this IG's own [WGS Test Order Form example](Bundle-WGSTestOrderForm-Example.html) - `ServiceRequest-WGSTestOrderForm-Example` carries `GT497` "Cystic renal disease - WGS" on `ServiceRequest.code` and `TP171` "Cystic renal disease" on `ServiceRequest.reasonCode` - confirming both share this same NHS England system (`https://fhir.nhs.uk/CodeSystem/England-DigitalGenomicTestServices`) rather than being modelled as two separate CodeSystems. This CodeSystem currently carries only those two codes as a starting fragment, not the complete digital Test Directory.
