Right - signing / attesting is an RM matter for the reasons Ian & Gerard have mentioned. And Dipak has provided some typical clinical reasons for it. Note that the openEHR attestation, while attached to the whole Composition does allow indicating specific bits of the Composition - see the model here <http://www.openehr.org/local/releases/1.0.1/uml/Browsable/_9_5_1_76d0249_1140169202660_257304_813Report.html>. I personally think have always thought this is a bad idea, because in the human world, people attest documents or screens - things that function as a whole statement, not bits and pieces. But we put it in anyway, to fit in with 13606, and I could of course be proved wrong in the future. So the option is there. - thomas -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
