    • Celine Lefebvre / Gail Kocher : 7-0-1

      Coverage.dependent is meant to convey the additional "dependent" modifier/qualifier on a coverage, when the beneficiary is a dependent of the subscriber, or to indicate that the beneficiary is the subscriber.

      Proposal 1: change Coverage.dependent to Coverage.dependentQualifier

      Proposal 2: change short description to "Dependent qualifier"

      Proposal 3: change Definition to "A dependent quailifer to convey the cases when the beneficiary is a specific dependent of the subscriber, and when the beneficiary is the subscriber"

      Proposal 4: change Requirements to "For some coverages, a single identifier is issued to the Subscriber and then a specific qualifier for each beneficiary"

      Proposal 5: change Comments to "Occasionally the member number is constructed from the subscriberId and the dependantQualifier"
