Hi, I have a question concerning the correct usage of a field within a ItemComponent object as part of the Claim class:
A ItemComponent object has a property called “productOrService” (of type CodeableConcept). However, from the description below this code can be either 1) a group code for a set of related claim details, or 2) a product, service, drug or other billing code for the (ItemComponent) item. There is an instance where it is being set with a Diagnosis/Condition code. Would this be considered acceptable usage or not?
Below is an example of one of its contructors being passed a “productOrService” code
public class ItemComponent: ...
/**
- When the value is a group code then this item collects a set of related claim details, otherwise this contains the product, service, drug or other billing code for the item.
*/
Protected CodeableConcept productOrService;
/**
* Constructor
*/
public ItemComponent(PositiveIntType sequence, CodeableConcept productOrService) {
super();
this.sequence = sequence;
this.productOrService = productOrService;
}

@Eric Neumann "There is an instance where it is being set with a Diagnosis/Condition code. Would this be considered acceptable usage or not? " Absolutely not, either it contains a coding.code="group" and one or more .details or a biling code (CPT, HCPCS, NDC, …). You are welcome to come to the Financial Management committee calls Tuesday 11-1 Eastern.
