Linking and Unlinking of Roles in Registries

Summary: this page contains a proposal to change the Person registry static models with regard to the linking of person records. The proposal effectively also applies to any other role based registry, it's an example of a Design Patterns for RIM Models.

• Note: This page contains the current/open proposal. Past discussions are archived on the Talk:Linking and Unlinking of Roles in Registries page.

Note: the HL7 Norway wiki is being migrated, some images/links are missing. 
Migration will be finialized late August 2011.

Proposal

1. See [1] for documentation of the modeling principles used to link Person Records - this model is the outcome of prior discussions (see above for a link to the documentation associated with that discussion)
2. PA D-MIM: add xx and xxx classes, as shown in the R-MIM model on this wiki page: [2].
3. Add an R-MIM and interaction for a new LinkPersonRecords interaction with an application acknowledgement, see [3]
4. Add an R-MIM and interaction for a new UnlinkPersonRecords interaction with an application acknowledgement, see [4].
5. Add the xx and xxx classes to the response interaction of the GetPersondemographics interaction, to expose any linkages in the response, see [5]
6. Discuss whether the guidance provided in the Norwegian project related to the collapsing (transitivity of) linkages in section [6] is universallay applicable or whether such guidance is project specific.
