German term

EA

German to English Medical Medical: Health Care Medical barcode tag
In a medical report, in the patient info barcode tag:

HKT: (I assume this has something to do with insurance, as it is followed by the insurance company)
HA:
EA:

Because nothing is written after HA and EA, I can only make assumptions, and I doubt if HA means Hausarzt.

German term (edited): EA = einweisender Arzt
Selected

referring physician, referred by

As this seems to be a block of administrative (rather than medical) information, I would read HKT = Hauptkostenträger, HA = Hausarzt, and EA = Einweisender Arzt.
Note from asker:
Thank you very much. But, according to the German rules of abbreviations, shouldn't it be abbreviated as "eA"? BTW, "EA" strongly suggests Electronic Arts :D

Early antigen


HKT could also stand for Hämatokrit

I found this document

In the list of abbreviations:

EA = early antigen
HA = Hepatitis A

neutral Erzsébet Czopyk : ***patient info barcode tag*** - not blood test (to be honest, initially I thought the same)
