      PC WG 7/30/15 to create consistency with name vs. code (observation, dx report and others....).

      Motion is to change Procedure.name to Procedure.code. Description needs to provide clarity on use of .code. Make change to both procedure and procedure request.

      Recommend changing the attribute type to code. Type implies that it is a categorization but the description of the attribute indicates that it is the identification of the procedurey. Also, there is already an attribute named "category" that could be interpreted by implementers as the "type" of procedure.
