The elements you describe help. But were I representing these assertions in something like PROLOG, I'd make "asserter" and "recorder" different elements for every item (with perhaps defaults). This is probably impractical and not that useful in practice, I grant you. Wearing my physician hat, I also agree that representing an allergy as a specialization of a problem makes no sense. <br /><br />On a related note, It is very difficult for most of us to dig through HL7 documents and get to the heart of the matter. Your contributions help a great deal.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14212686689376586500noreply@blogger.com
