Clarification Needed for Patient Summary and Plan
The Patient Summary and Plan data class needs to be renamed to Patient Assessment and Plan. The Patient Summary and Plan data class should clarify that this data class covers Patient Assessment, and Plan of Treatment information. Using the words “Patient Summary” is confusing because a “Patient Summary” is a type of Clinical Note Document that summarizes the patient’s medical history over a span of time. The term "Patient Summary" is widely used throughout the Sequoia, Commonwell/Carequality communities and will lead to widespread confusion if used here.
