Licensed Facilities
ICCBBA's Commitment to Registered and Licensed Facilities
ICCBBA will provide documentation of all updates and extensions
to ISBT 128 to each Registered and Licensed Facility as they become
available. ICCBBA maintains a Website (http://www.iccbba.org)
through which updates and extensions are first published. Licensed facilities
may self-select a password to gain access to the registered users' section of the ICCBBA Website in order to obtain these updates
and extensions. ICCBBA attempts to make certain that all data in
ICCBBA databases are accurate, and will immediately make available
any corrections. Data provided in the Facility Identification Number
and Manufacturer Identification Code tables can only be as accurate as
the most recent information provided to ICCBBA.
