Topic: missing data vs hidden data in US Core
Eric Haas (Feb 25 2021 at 02:48):
J#30678 correctly points out that US Core only handle the missing data case. What about the hidden data case? Should the same general guidance with a different code from DAR apply?
Eric Haas (Feb 25 2021 at 02:48):
e.g.
masked
Masked The information is not available due to security, privacy or related reasons.
Lloyd McKenzie (Feb 25 2021 at 03:03):
In situations where the fact the specific piece of data is hidden actually needs to be exposed. In most cases it's more appropriate to instead provide a warning in the OperationOutcome that says "Some results have been suppressed due to lack of permission to access" or even "Some results MAY have been suppressed due to lack of permission to access"
Lloyd McKenzie (Feb 25 2021 at 03:03):
Or even just suppress silently

All depends on what the user has the right to know.
Eric Haas (Feb 25 2021 at 20:32):
We are talking about min =1 elements
Eric Haas (Feb 25 2021 at 20:33):
So silent suppression means non confirming to the sd
Eric Haas (Feb 25 2021 at 20:34):
So unknown would be not exposing the reason is that better
Eric Haas (Feb 25 2021 at 20:34):
?
Lloyd McKenzie (Feb 25 2021 at 23:27):
Ah, if min=1, then you could say suppressed, but you could also choose to say "unknown" even if suppressed.
