CSCR-080-Lab-Change Data Enterer To Transcriber

Back to Clinical Statement Change Requests page.

Submitted date: 11/24/2008	Change request ID: CSCR-080

Issue

According to the RIM definition of the data entry person (ENT) participation type code, this must be a person entering the data. Clinical Statement uses the R_AssignedEntity CMET to be the data enterer, which allows persons, organizations or devices to be data enterer.

Recommendation

Change the DataEnterer participation from ENT to TRANS (transcriber). ENT is a child of TRANS, and transcriber allows any entity to transcribe, not just persons.

Rationale

This approach retains backward compatibility and makes Clinical Statement conformant with the RIM.

Resolution

15-Jan-09 - Motion to accept: Austin, Charlie. Discussion further clarified around a device when fully automated or when person speaks into system. Against: 0; Abstain: 1; In Favor: 21
