HL7 - Version 2.5.1 Final StandardSuggested Corrections to the Standard Documents |
In order to provide the original standard in a database, several changes to the official documents are required. In principal, this version of the standard is mostly in sync with v2.5.1, because only a few chapters have been changed due to the HITSP program by adding a few fields.
The "errors" listed in this section are identified before issuing the final version of the standard.
Table 0550 contains the same code for different descriptions.
The next table provides a list of changes applied
in contrast to the original documentation (Word).
These issues are still unsolved.
Anyhow, they must be listed in order to provide the information required
to track the differences between the official standard an the database.
| Version | Type | Entry | Correction | Section | Date |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2.5 | table | RAR, RDR, RER and RGR |
add to table 0003 this item is a little bit tricky, as these "events" are a response to the appropriate Q-events. Therefore, it raises the question whether they should be listed as events at all? |
