I made the following statement in an earlier posting:

        The 270-271 IG is clear that if a patient can be uniquely identified
to an information source, that patient's information    should be passed at
the subscriber hierarchical level, "whether he or she is a child, spouse, or
the actual subscriber to        the plan" .  (pg 13). 

We now have a client (an information source) who wants to use the subscriber
loop for the actual subscriber, and the dependent loop for dependents,
despite the fact that this client uses unique identifiers for each patient.
We can certainly write the code to handle this, but I'd like some feedback
the following questions:

1) Is my earlier statement (which is my own interpretation of the IG)
correct?

2) If so, is there any need/value in encouraging our client to adopt this
interpretation rather than their own?  The transaction set can handle doing
it their way, even if it's arguably incorrect.
