Topic: Questionnaire answer with time period
Lionel Kornberger (Mar 18 2022 at 11:14):
Hi implementers,
is there a way to define a time period for a Questionnaire answerItem? Specifically I need to set a from-date and a to-date and a way to distinguish them for validation. Any hints or directions is greatly appreciated :)

In the Argonaut Questionnaire IG we defined an extension: http://fhir.org/guides/argonaut/questionnaire/StructureDefinition-extension-timeLimit.html
I thought is was adopted by FHIR SDH IG but apparently not. ( @Lloyd McKenzie ?)

I think that's different from what @Lionel Kornberger is asking for. If you're looking to capture an answer as well as a time period when that date is deemed to apply, you'll need a second question to capture the period. (It could be a child question.)

@Eric Haas, this was discussed in FHIR#19430. We punted it on the ground that more experience around expected behavior was needed.

If I were doing this I would just have 2 questions for the start and end, and include an invariant extension to ensure that they were in sequence correctly (and conditional mandatories if you needed that too).
Also makes it easy to work with pre-population if you're doing that.

Is there a c++ implementation of FHIR Could you please point me to it? Also are the Data Bases needed for FHIR Relational? Thanks in advance!
