Laboratory Performers SHALL be recorded as performers in the CDA Header as well as
in the structured body as demonstrated in the figure below. Documentation of laboratory
performers MAY be done in multiple levels of the document to reflect performance scope.
In the case where there is a single Laboratory Performer, this entity SHALL be documented
in CDA header as
shown. In the case where multiple Laboratory Performers participated in the lab testing
process, they SHALL be documented in the structuredBody at the observation level.
These performers SHALL conform to the General Constraints found in HL7 CRS: 2.1.1
with respect to the requirements for name, address, telephone numbers and other contact
information.
This module is out of
the XDS-Lab Specification and documented there in a <performer> element. This module
does not change requirements stated in that specification but is structured as a module
to ensure consistent content representation and re-usability.
The figure below shows how the information for this element is coded, and further
constraints are provided in the following sections.
