As they say in Odessa, a CDA "document and an open EHR are two big differences.
Mapping current HL7 vs. openEHR structures is like squaring the circle.

Dear Dana,
Why would you like to do that?
Theoretically it might be possible to map computationally constraints
imposed on one model to others imposed on an other, where both ways express the
same clinical model.
But I doubt that this can be done.
So far only humans can make the translation since only us humans have an
"internal ontology", an internal knowledge of the clinical world, that makes
this possible.
As far as I can see it, the CEN/tc251 EN13606 part 1 is a model of any
document.
The HL7v3 RIM is a linguistic model of any possible statement of fact.
Both are not the same.
Doesn't CDA provide the model for a document in the context of HL7?
