    Description

      Table 16-1 currently says:

      Condition: This LOINC does not appear in the message; this data element is conveyed in SPM-7 Specimen Collection Method with LRI_NDBS_Component Usage: Data Type: CWE_03; Usage: ‘RE’, Cardinality: [0..1], Value Set: SNOMED CT and/or LOINC Preferred Answer List (LL3860-5).

       

      But the SPM segment definition says:

      LRI_NDBS_Component Usage: ‘X’

       

      There is a conflict here as SPM-7 cannot be populated. The Usage of both should be updated to "O" as most programs don't collect Specimen Collection Method, but if they do, there should be guidance on how to message it.
