      The commenter is referring to

       

      1) the US Core DiagnosticReport Profile for Report and Note Exchange Profile's narrative Must Support bullet, which was not edited in this ballot:

       

       

      .. and the base FHIR DiagnosticReport.encounter short name, "Health care event when test ordered":

       

       In contrast,  in the US Core DiagnosticReport Profile for Laboratory Results Reporting

      we added the bullet:

       ... and modified the profile's short definition to align the bullet and the with base FHIR definition and comment for the element:

       

      Decision

      RE "what way can I locate the encounter to which the procedure the report reports on occurred?"

      1) To clarify that the encounter is associated with "The healthcare event which this DiagnosticReport is about", change the bullet and short definition in the US Core DiagnosticReport Profile for Report and Note Exchange to align with US Core DiagnosticReport Profile for Laboratory Results Reporting (see background).

    Description

      The requirements state "Each Diagnostic Report Must Support: 1 - the encounter the report occurred within".

      The encounter field in DiagnosticReport states that it links to the "Health care event when test ordered". In what way can I locate the encounter to which the procedure the report reports on occurred? These are not necessarily the same.
