An episode of appendicitis at 10, an episode where the spleen is removed, an episode of leukemia at 10, all are more or less very important, when talking about the disease related episode. In contrast the administrative related episodes are NOT important under must (non-legal) circumstances. Although it might be important to know for a relatively short period that because of hart failure the patient is admitted to a hospital every other week. The list of recorded episodes is very valuable to discern important medical facts from common colds, and bruises. It is the patients medical history where important medical facts are grouped. Do we have a list of use cases for each type of Episode?
