How do I express a patient's sexual partner, or a drug injecting partner?
Lloyd McKenzie (Jan 08 2021 at 21:06):
Presumably as potential actor - i.e. notification recipient, therapy recipient, etc? RelatedPerson. If you think we need additional codes, feel free to submit them.
Jose Costa Teixeira (Jan 08 2021 at 21:18):
RelatedPerson is "a person that is involved in the care for a patient"
Jose Costa Teixeira (Jan 08 2021 at 21:19):
nevermind. I think the examples in RelatedPerson go beyond that first scope statement.
I think I should submit a Jira for loosening that first sentence
Jose Costa Teixeira (Jan 08 2021 at 21:20):
a drug injecting partner is involved in a person's health, but not in the care, right?
Lloyd McKenzie (Jan 08 2021 at 21:23):
Changing it to "health or care" would be a good idea
