      -Propose that we add "(C4DIC)" after "CARIN for Digital Insurance Card" as part of the introduction section on the home page
      -Propose that we adjust the Overview section of the Background page to the following: "For Payers implementing the CARIN for Digital Insurance Card (C4DIC) they can leverage the Coverage resource, the Organization resource, and the Patient resource to represent the essential information found on the physical insurance card. This Implementation Guide creates 3 FHIR profiles to enable the standardized exchange of this information. The purpose of each profile is as follows:

      --C4DIC Coverage: The CARIN for Digital Insurance Card profile for the Coverage resource communicates the insurance plan information
      --C4DIC Organization: The CARIN for Digital Insurance Card profile for the Organization resource communicates the contact information for the plan (often found on the back of the physical insurance card)
      --C4DIC Patient: The CARIN for Digital Insurance Card profile for the Patient resource communicates additional demographic information such as date of birth for the member whose data is being retrieved

      The below diagram outlines how these profiles relate. As shown below, the coverage.payor field will contain a reference to the corresponding Organization resource, and the coverage.beneficiary field will contain a reference to the corresponding Patient resource for the member whose data is being retrieved."

    Description

      In various places, including narrative and profiles, the abbreviation C4DIC is used but I don't recall this abbreviation ever being defined. Presumably, DIC stands for Digital Insurance Card but it's less clear what the importance of C4 is. Please define this abbreviation before it gets used.
