Document Description

extended per TSC Tracker 12574, extension TSC GF 15952, JIRA TSC-29, TSC-123

Existing Wording

The current 1.1 eICR IG does not include conformance constraints to address a versioning scheme for a set of eICR documents, such as a new eICR replacing an eICR document (i.e. An eICR contains an error or omission that is subsequently replaced by the corrected eICR). Without it there will not be any indication that a replacement or “child” eICR document is replacing its parent eICR document.

Proposed Wording

The MAY contain zero or one clinicalDocument.setId and clinicalDocument.versionNumber should be changed to a SHALL contain one clinicalDocument.setId and clinicalDocument.versionNumber. The initial version must have a ClinicalDocument.versionNumber set equal to "1". The version.Number must be incremented by one when a report is replaced. A replacement document gets a new globally unique ClinicalDocument.id value. The parent eICR document and all of its eICR replacement documents use the same value for ClinicalDocument.setId.
