Description Issue:

- According to specifications at page 24 of the document "epSOS_D3.9.1_Appendix_B1_B2_Implementation_v1.4_20110725.pdf" the value of /ClinicalDocument/participant/[@typeCode=’IND’]/associatedEntity/@classCode should come from valueset epSOSRoleClass 2.16.840.1.113883.5.110

The valueset epSOSRoleClass has the values: "ECON" and "NOK".

At page 84 of the same document there is different information:

"The <associatedEntity> element defines the type of contact. The classCode attribute shall be present, and contains a value from the set AGNT, CAREGIVER, ECON, NOK, or PRS to idenitify contacts that are agents of the patient, care givers, emergency contacts, next of kin, or other relations respectively."

Proposal:

- Please clarify which of these two descriptions is correct.

Should the valueset epSOSRoleClass be corrected to contain also the values AGNT, CAREGIVER and PRS or should the information at the page 84 be corrected (contains only the values ECON and NOK)?
