@Rob Hausam I got this warning for the NDC display name:
The display "FLUZONE High-Dose Quadrivalent Northern Hemisphere" is not a valid display for the code {http://hl7.org/fhir/sid/ndc}49281012165 - should be one of ['FLUZONE High-Dose Quadrivalent Northern Hemisphere, 10 SYRINGE, GLASS in 1 PACKAGE (49281-121-65) > .7 mL in 1 SYRINGE, GLASS (49281-121-88) (package)'] (from http://tx.fhir.org/r4) for 'http://hl7.org/fhir/sid/ndc#49281012165'
when I look at CDC website and the FDA NDC lookup I get the former and not the latter which although thorough and precise seem a bit cumbersome for a display name. Is that the official display name per NDC or the definition?

@Grahame Grieve when I corrected the error above I get the following warning:
The display "FLUZONE High-Dose Quadrivalent Northern Hemisphere, 10 SYRINGE, GLASS in 1 PACKAGE (49281-121-65) > .7 mL in 1 SYRINGE, GLASS (49281-121-88) (package)" is not a valid display for the code {http://hl7.org/fhir/sid/ndc}49281012165 - should be one of ['FLUZONE High-Dose Quadrivalent Northern Hemisphere, 10 SYRINGE, GLASS in 1 PACKAGE (49281-121-65) > .7 mL in 1 SYRINGE, GLASS (49281-121-88) (package)'] (from http://tx.fhir.org/r4) for 'http://hl7.org/fhir/sid/ndc#49281012165'
I assume this is bug since -to me- they are the same?
Grahame Grieve (Nov 16 2021 at 18:40):
they do look pretty similar, yes. how do I reproduce that?
Rob Hausam (Nov 16 2021 at 19:26):
We need to look again at the description(s) that we're picking up from the NDC distribution.
Grahame Grieve (Nov 16 2021 at 19:32):
well, it's odd - that's a package code.
Grahame Grieve (Nov 16 2021 at 19:32):
the package description is
Grahame Grieve (Nov 16 2021 at 19:32):
10 SYRINGE, GLASS in 1 PACKAGE (49281-121-65) > .7 mL in 1 SYRINGE, GLASS (49281-121-88)
Grahame Grieve (Nov 16 2021 at 19:33):
the product is
Grahame Grieve (Nov 16 2021 at 19:33):
49281-121
Grahame Grieve (Nov 16 2021 at 19:33):
for which the display is
Grahame Grieve (Nov 16 2021 at 19:33):
FLUZONE High-Dose Quadrivalent Northern Hemisphere
Grahame Grieve (Nov 16 2021 at 19:34):
is it OK to use the product display for the package code is it? Surely not? Multiple NDC package codes can't be differentiated?

if you want I can create a test build...
Grahame Grieve (Nov 17 2021 at 02:04):
not necessary in this case
Vassil Peytchev (Nov 17 2021 at 02:11):
No quotes around the display value?
Grahame Grieve (Nov 18 2021 at 00:49):
I can't reproduce this - is it a caching issue?
Grahame Grieve (Nov 18 2021 at 00:50):
At least, that you can't get the display correct. The underlying issue about display names hasn't been answered by someone who knows NDC. I'll try #Medication
