FamilyRelationship #34

Open RobertJCarroll opened 3 years ago

RobertJCarroll commented 3 years ago

I noticed a difference in the NCPI Family Relationship Profile and my expectations.

The Profile sets a fixed code with the type of relationship, while using the value field to provide more detail. Is there a reason we don't just put the value bindings on the code? The code FAMMEMB doesn't really provide us with any information that's not specified by the profile and what's currently in the value.

tagging @liberaliscomputing . @torstees and I discussed this before and couldn't come up with anything.

This really does seem like a more streamlined and clean approach as long as we plan to use those role codes. You can get all of those observations using the profile or even :below
