      This guidance is not new but is specific to this IG. It is based on elements of state laws and HIPAA. It manages variations in those laws with the RCKMS decision support engine. The commentor’s excellent point is carefully navigated through the guidance language that allows flexibility to accomand the specific laws / decision support rules that are authored by the different jurisdictions.

      Question - Is this guidance newly created for this IG or is it based on external published guidance or regulations governing public health reporting procedures that will continue to exist independently? If the latter is true, then relevant sources should be identified, and clear distinctions made between what is appropriately technical guidance on the use of this IG and public guidance that exists independent of the use of this particular technical approach to reporting. The risk is that changes made to external guidance might require changes to this IG guidance.
