Sebastian,

I think this is about right. I think 'immutable' in law and 'immutable' in information systems have to be understood as different things. The law is always local, so I think the best that could be done is a standard kind of attestation whose reason for change was something like 'final version approved by governing health authority' or similar.

Thank you all for your suggestions. To conclude on this topic, the main ideas were that: - there is no sufficient reasons for an extra value for version.lifecycle_state to indicate that a version is immutable - immutable is anyway in real life not '100% immutable', corrections should/might be allowed under certain conditions (up the the application) - immutable state functionality can be achieved using ATTESTATION (that gives the seal and context) and perhaps EHR_ACCESS (that gives the read-only policy)

Regards,
Sebastian
