Design Patterns for RIM Models
This page documents a series of design patterns that provide guidance for modelers producing RIM-based information models for HL7 publications.
- All RIM modellers should be aware of design patterns.
- Design patterns are subject to harmonization.
- Checking for the correct use of patterns is part of full ballot quality criteria checking.
- Balloters are welcome to comment in ballot about whether patterns are followed.
- Committee ballot decisions with respect to design patterns can be appealed to MnM. Final decision rests with TSC chair.

These sections should be found in the documentation of each pattern:
- what is the pattern? - why is it defined? - when is it appropriate? (and in what design paradigm?)
-- when must/should it be used? -- when must/should it not be used?
- where has it been used (example)? - where has it not been used (example)? - who enforces - other variations
