      The A1c profile fixes Observation.code to the 4584-4 LOINC code but there seem to be multiple other LOINC codes that might be relevant. Please clarify in the profile if A1c results reported with these other LOINC codes should be included when sending A1c data using BSeR. If so, should the other LOINC codes be used, or should the LOINC code be changed to 4584-4.
