be repeated in this document. The implementers must also be familiar with the content

The Healthcare Encounter Report service not only supports the patient summary extension
use case, but also supports the ePrescription extension use case and the 112 emergency
use case. Therefore this service description not only covers the patient summary extension,
but also the ePrescription extension and the part of the 112 emergency use case where
information about the emergency encounter is sent back to country A.
The definition of a healthcare event can be broad. The HCER service is designed to
offer a health professional in country B flexibility to record a wide range of medical
information, enough to cover the most basic healthcare encounters. The service offers
country A the basic contact information of the health professional in country B together
with the medical information gathered during the healthcare encounter. Informing country
A of a healthcare encounter in county B, of course, is done with consent of the patient.

The clinical document typeId identifies the constraints imposed by CDA R2 on the
content, essentially acting as a version identifier.
The @root and @extension values of this element are specified as shown in the example below.
The ClinicalDocument/id element is an instance identifier data type. The root attribute is an OID. If there
is a value in @extension, then the root uniquely identifies the scope of the extension.
If there is no value in @extension then @root SHALL uniquely identify the document
UUIDs SHALL be represented in the form XXXXXXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXXXXXXXXXX, where
each X is a character from the set [A-Fa-f0-9].
OIDs SHALL be represented in dotted decimal notation, where each decimal number is
either 0, or starts with a nonzero digit. More formally, an OID SHALL be in the form
([0-2])(.([1-9][0-9]*|0))+.
The patient address
element is required. If there is no information, the nullFlavor attribute shall have
a value of 'NI' and no address parts shall be present, otherwise there shall be no
nullFlavor attribute, and at least one of the address parts listed below shall be
present.
Patient’s telephone number / Patient e-mail address. The patient telephone or e-mail
element is required. If there is no information, the nullFlavor attribute shall have
a value of 'NI' and the "value" and "use" attributes shall be omitted, otherwise the
nullFlavor attribute shall not be present, and the "value" and "use" attributes shall
be present Optionalities and Cardinalities of the following two items shall be interpreted
according to this rule: e.g. is not expected to have two nullFlavored telecom elements.
The guardians of a patient shall be recorded in the <guardian> element beneath the
/ClinicalDocument/recordTarget/patientRole/patient XML - <patient> element. Other patient contacts are described using the /ClinicalDocument/participant structure. The <associatedEntity> element defines the type of contact.
The relationship between the patient and the guardian or other contact should be recorded
in the <code> element. The code attribute is required and comes from the HL7 PersonalRelationshipRoleType
vocabulary (epSOSPersonalRelationship value set).
The address of the guardian or other contact should be present, and shall be represented,
as any other address would be in CDA.
The phone number of the guardian or other contact should be present, and shall be
represented, as any other phone number would be in CDA.
The name of the guardian or other contact shall be present, and shall be represented,
as any other name would be in CDA.
