Issue

Our goal has always been to minimize the reporting burden for labs by aligning the ELR IG as closely as possible with guidance to labs for reporting results back to clinicians. After the completion of balloting and reconcilation for the LRI IG, we need to review it against the ELR IG and identify what changes, if any, should be proposed for ELR IG R2.
