Logical Model: Authenticator (CDA Class)

Official URL: http://hl7.org/cda/stds/core/StructureDefinition/Authenticator Version: 2.0.0-sd
Active as of 2024-05-16 Computable Name: Authenticator

Represents a participant who has attested to the accuracy of the document, but who does not have privileges to legally authenticate the document. An example would be a resident physician who sees a patient and dictates a note, then later signs it. A clinical document can have zero to many authenticators. While electronic signatures are not captured in a CDA document, both authentication and legal authentication require that a document has been signed manually or electronically by the responsible individual. An authenticator has a required authenticator.time indicating the time of authentication, and a required authenticator.signatureCode, indicating that a signature has been obtained and is on file.
