1. We need this general language to cover the desired scope of this function. Your recommended wording narrows the scope too much. 2. Your recommended additional wording is just one many comparable other examples that could be added with little added benefit and much added confusion. Once you add a specific example, you must add all similar examples. 3. You suggest that these two functions cover the same scope, and you suggest that we combine them. We separated these functions specifically so that we can distinguish between what is feasible today and what is really for the future. Please go read about profiles again. 4. It appears to us that you want this function gone because it will impose an unreasonable burden on the way you practice or write software. You may have missed the point of profiles. This is a shopping list - not a list of required burdens on care givers and vendors. Nothing in this DSTU and it's documented use says that you have to implement this. 5. Maybe this sounds far out to you today, but so did humans on the moon in In the Profiles, you are free to identify this function as optional or essential future. 6. This wording is meant to be technology-irrelevant. Your suggested wording implies something too technology-specific. 7. Don't forget that you only practice in a particular domain of healthcare. This function is here for other care settings. 8. For the DS subsection. Yes this matches that other function in direct or supportive. That function is about delivering the care or directly supporting the delivery of the care. This function is about supporting the clinical decision making that must happen first. 9. We appreciate that there are privacy issues. However, almost every one of these functions may have privacy issues. Thank you for reminding us. 10. Maybe you're right - perhaps not. Who is to say? The group consensus is to try it as is, we will we test your opinion in the real world? 11. A good idea. Really! OK if we park this change until the next version? 1.
