Am I correct in believing this is the immunisation schedule. So it's 'static' look up data.

When implementing this in a SQL database I could have a Immunisation table which points to a VaccinationProtocol table entry.

it will be tailored to the individual. btw, @Bryn Rhodes I've been meaning to ask you about this resource - can it go away in favour of a generic decision support outcome?

Thanks that's more than what we need to show in our examples, so will leave that section off for now.

@Grahame Grieve yes, I think you could use PlanDefinition to represent both Immunization.vaccinationProtocol, as well as ImmunizationRecommendation.protocol, and it would make sense to have those defined as a resource, rather than repeating that information in every instance. We'd need to work through an example of what that would look like.

interesting, so you'd still retain the wrapper resource?

No, I would think that ImmunizationRecommendation should be a recommendation for a single immunization, and use a RequestGroup or CarePlan to group them.

Immunization.vaccinationProtocol contains some data that is not part of a definition of the protocol: .doseSequence, .doseStatus and .doseStatusReason.

If it makes sense for doseSequence or doseStatus to depend upon the protocol, something like the vaccinationProtocol backbone element will still be needed.
