Hi all, First of all, I largely agree with Heather re the current approach. At freshEHR, we generally try to maximise the use of international 'semantic' archetypes, including scales, scores etc but accept that this is often not necessary and that there is place for simply modelling aspects of the questionnaire as-is.
Commercially, I am interested in how we might make use of , or at worst, play nicely with the FHIR Questionnaire resources.
