The concept (DCM) is the same, but the implementation in different standards will differ, as two different standards will never have the same way of representing the same concept. As DCM should be even broader than archetypes and templates, generating them from the DCM should not be dangerous at all: all the information that can be stored in a standard is included. If something vital is being left out then it means that the standard can not represent all the domain constraints and another standard should be chosen. Take epSOS as an example: HL7 CDA can not define correctly the active ingredients of a medication in the way decided by the clinicians. The proposed solution was to modify CDA schema to include the structure needed, creating a new epSOS-CDA standard incompatible with current normative CDA. Next epSOS will be supposedly based on a newer CDA version that should support those things. The dangers for the patient are not on the well defined concepts but in the standards without the ability to represent all critical constraints
