Topic: Examples for resources owned by another WG
Michelle (Moseman) Miller (Jan 20 2017 at 13:35):
Is it discouraged or allowed (with consultation) to create examples for a resource owned by another work group? For example, @Brian Postlethwaite , if I wanted to create a new Patient example, can I do that? I understand the burden it puts on the work group to maintain the example(s), but I'm asking anyway in the event we want a given Patient with some set of characteristics to align with another resource. I don't know (yet) that we need to do this, just trying to understand the process if we come to that point....
Michelle (Moseman) Miller (Jan 20 2017 at 13:43):
Or, do others not worry about whether the referenced Patient/Encounter functionally align with their examples? I'm starting to think through the challenges of creating more CarePlan examples that could references a bunch of other resources -- and so it seems like we'd want those references to all cohesively tell the story of the care plan.
Lloyd McKenzie (Jan 20 2017 at 14:44):
It's allowed, but coordination with the owning WG committer is expected
Michelle (Moseman) Miller (Jan 20 2017 at 14:55):
Due to the timelines, I think I am going to just use references with displays only, so I don't need to build out N-many additional examples that are referenced by CarePlan.
Brian Postlethwaite (Jan 20 2017 at 16:57):
@Michelle (Moseman) Miller , I'd be very happy if you provided additional clinically valid content for your needs.
Melva Peters (Jan 20 2017 at 17:51):
I haven't created new examples for resources outside Pharmacy - I choose an example for those referenced resources that seem reasonable, although that isn't always possible. It just isn't possible to do this given the timelines :(
Grahame Grieve (Feb 06 2017 at 02:30):
this is an area where we could plan improvements for the next version. for now, we have to pragmatic - which it sounds like everyone is being.
Eric Haas (Feb 06 2017 at 03:15):
Another option is to create a contained example and make a comment that is for this example and the references are typically external. I did that for Procedure request and a lame Task example
Lloyd McKenzie (Feb 06 2017 at 04:46):
We need to be cautious about creating contained examples - too many people are abusing "contained" already . . .
Eric Haas (Feb 06 2017 at 07:00):
Committing new examples is tough when your use case needs a new patient ( they are currently no women or infants or children in the patients examples ) or a provenance or any of the event or request resource pattern additions that have a long list of elements that reference resources of which there are few if any useful coordinated examples in the build. That is what I think Michelle is facing - having aligned several resources to event and request.
Grahame Grieve (Feb 06 2017 at 07:11):
yes. it would be good for us to have better tooling, but that'll have to be in the future
Grahame Grieve (Feb 06 2017 at 07:12):
we could, for instance, edit the cases in clinfhir, but there's a series of things to do to make taht work that we haven't done yet
Eric Haas (Feb 06 2017 at 07:13):
That is one place I haven't mined for examples... I should take a look.
John Moehrke (Feb 06 2017 at 15:08):
Growing pains...
