      The InM WG who owns this value set will work with Vocab to change "currency" to "currentness". This change is for the code and display values (definition to remain unchanged).

    Description

      (Comment about http://hl7.org/fhir/R4/valueset-message-significance-category.html)
      When I glanced at this value set and saw currency, I immediately thought money. Perhaps use a different word since this is about getting the latest (most-current) information, not about money at all.

      Existing Wording:

      currentcy

      Proposed Wording:

      timeliness? Latest?
