Issue
On page 56 in the message structure for the Specimen Group it states: "The specimen group is required if known in the ORU and is used to carry specimen information that is no longer contained in the OBR segment. It also provides a place for the specimen number. Each specimen group documents a single sample."
On page 84 in the SPM segment the specimen identifier, SPM-2, is set to O.
Either one or the other must be fixed.
Recommendation
Suggest to make SPM-2 RE as it is the only way to disambiguiate multiple SPMs.
I am not sure whether we can include this in the errate, but if we don't its a big gap.
