How is the CLIA performing/testing lab represented on Observation? Is there agreement or guidance on whether to represent it using the event-location extension (Location) or Observation.performer (Organization)? CC: @Andrew Torres

Is there a way to distinguish a CLIA-governed lab report from lab result information surfaced in an EHR (e.g., with translations)?
