The general idea for things like the Instruction Index is to make it a combination of specific openEHR structures, and rules for using those structures (e.g. about where/when LINKs have to be created etc). To make this properly useful, the structures and rules should be mostly hidden, and instead a business service exposed, specific to this function, which we can think of as 'care plans'. There are other services/APIs that can be defined for specific business purposes as well, which enable the application programmer to easily create and interrogate complex underlying data. Hopefully we will see a draft description of the Instruction Index, and some ideas for APIs like 'care plan' and so on. It would be very interesting to see other service models in this area.
