Usage

Note that Observation.effective[x] is the clinically relevant time/time-period, which is typically when the specimen assessed in the laboratory test was collected (as opposed to when the lab assay was performed).

Note that the performer element indicates the laboratory performing the test, rather than the collector of the specimen used in the test.

Specimen collection supervision status

The specimen collection supervision status ValueSet provides a method for identifying whether a specimen was collected by the patient with supervision, without supervision, etc. This is stored in Observation.component, identified by setting Observation.component.code to the SNOMED CT concept 1208522006 (“Type of supervision for specimen collection (observable entity)”). Observation.component.valueCodeableConcept is one of the codes in the aforementioned ValueSet.
