Context of Issue
Context:	Profiles derived from Observation
Type:	Implementation Guide
Source:	UK Core Developement Team
Scope:	Proposed Out of Scope

Issue	Proposal
The predecessor to the UK Core C&TA7 was an NHSD Observations IG. This gave much more information on how to use the Observations, search terms, how they link. Now they are between all other Profiles with not enough guidance on usage, as found with the PDM team.	Initial Proposal: Propose splitting into separate IG to keep together with more specific information on how to use. Main Points Raised in C&TA Calls: Kevin Sprague: Process is currently disjointed (gap between tech assurance vs ballot); align road map first. Acknowledged process hiccup; next Sprint should clarify inclusion/exclusion and sequencing. Ben McAlister: Observed derived profiles appear as active in the guide, causing confusion if they’re out of scope. Ryan May: Clarified the ballot status was draft, not balloted (corrected himself).

Proposal

The predecessor to the UK Core C&TA7 was an NHSD Observations IG. This gave much more information on how to use the Observations, search terms, how they link. Now they are between all other Profiles with not enough guidance on usage, as found with the PDM team.

Initial Proposal:

Propose splitting into separate IG to keep together with more specific information on how to use.

Main Points Raised in C&TA Calls:

Kevin Sprague:

Process is currently disjointed (gap between tech assurance vs ballot); align road map first.
Acknowledged process hiccup; next Sprint should clarify inclusion/exclusion and sequencing.

Ben McAlister:

Observed derived profiles appear as active in the guide, causing confusion if they’re out of scope.

Ryan May:

Clarified the ballot status was draft, not balloted (corrected himself).
