Agree with this and want to add one more - this statement from the document:
"Meaningful Use currently mandates a patchwork of idiosyncratic
formats, such as HL7, CCD/ C32, CCR, NCPDP SCRIPT, C-CDA and QRDA. While such
formats provide a degree of machine processability, in comparison, RDF offers
significant advantages:"
- How can you compare RDF to these models? Surely you can serialize
data that conforms to these standards into RDF, no?
thanks
