Vitals counts - OMOP #31

While testing OMOP-Oracle script on our data, I discovered that it doesn't return any counts of Vitals encounters, because we do not populate encounter_id (visit_occurrence_id) for the vitals. (NB: this is a limitation of our source system for pre-Epic data). OMOP lists visit_occurrence_id as optional in the measurement table, so this is allowed by CDM. How do you propose we deal with it for other sites that may have the same situation? Or are we unique?
