      Existing Wording: Human readability approach: CDA and FHIR both require that content be human-readable and define specific rules for how the human readable text is presented. One small difference is that in CDA, the human readable portion is defined for the section, while for FHIR the text is on the resource the section points to.

      Proposed Wording: Human readability approach: CDA and FHIR both require that content be human-readable and define specific rules for how the human readable text is presented. One difference is that in CDA, the human readable portion is defined for the section, while for FHIR the text can be both on the resource as well as the List resource that references the resources.

      Comment:

      The paragraph as written is not entirely true, since FHIR documents will probably use List resources which can have their own narrative which may not be exactly the sum of the narratives of the individual resources in the list (as described in FHIR 6.1.5). I think this is more than a "small" difference so I deleted the word "small." Also, the paragraph implies that FHIR has a "section" that points to resources, but there is no FHIR "section" resource. Proposed wording tries to clarify.
