I would like to see if something out of the box could be added to HealthShare for when a Code Table value is not found that it is automatically added to the existing Code table. Sometimes endpoint systems add additional values that are not always communicated down to systems.
In our previous home grown built system if the Credentialing system had sent us a value that did not exist in our Tables, I wrote code to populate our Tables with the new value and notify someone that something has been added. Ideally if we added the value to the Code Table, and then either use Workflow Alerting or within the Task List for someone to verify it would save us time and maintenance effort.
Thank you for submitting the idea. The status has been changed to "Needs review".
Stay tuned!
This needs deep consideration and discussion. I agreed auto-adding unknown codetable values as encountered makes sense to allow messages to be processed. But i think this will open up pandoras box. You will encouter incomplete codetable entries, doubling or more code table entries actually meaning the same. So essentially you move maintenance from the source to the downstream systems.
