US Core v6.1.0 Tests treat Patient name.period as MS (FI-2534)

[jwjahns]

Hello,

The US Core 6.1.0 tests are considering Patient name.period as MS in test 10.2.09:

This does not seem to be a requirement of US Core or USCDI. This is distinct from the additional USCDI MS requirement of name.period.end or name.use = old, which is the requirement called out more specifically in US Core (for communicating a "previous name").

In the above image, a patient with name.use = old was provided, but the MS error was still shown.

In US Core v6.1.0, Patient.name.period is marked as USCDI element while the narrative section states Patient.name.period.end be one of choice for Patient's previous name. That inconsistentcy between structure definition and narrative causes this issue.

Found other issues on Patient previous name and address MustSupport for US Core 3.1.1, 4.0.0, and 5.0.1. Will fix together.

Resolution:

• Will move MS/USCDI tag from Patient.name.period to Patient.name.period.end in Inferno metadata.

Effect:

• Not Compatible. This change MAY cause new failure for already certified system.
