Maybe:

a) a bit verbose
b) the user isn't really interested in "Patient export format"

See the screenshot to get a better idea of what this is
meant for GUI-wise. The leftmost column shows the source
string.

What's MSVA stand for ?  Would that be intuitive to a user
of said billing program ? If so I'd suggest "BC.CA MSVA". If
MSVA is rather generic I would suggest somehow hinting at
the name of the actual billing program. Unless MSVA *is* a
generic format used by several programs and you explicitely
want a generic source (which may not make sense if the
filename/location isn't standard).
