Narrative

Note: links and images are rebased to the (stated) source

                       Example: Fax, letter, attachment to e-mail.

                       Example: query message to a Covered Party registry application or Coverage Administrator.

                       Example: smartcard, magnetic swipe card, RFID device.

                       Example: By speaking with or calling the Coverage Administrator or Covered Party

                    Rationale: Duplicate of code 0126. Use code 0126 instead.
