Cross Version Analysis

### Cross Version Analysis

This is an R4 IG. None of the features it uses are changed in R4B, so it can be used as is with R4B systems. Packages for both [R4 (your.package.id.r4)](package.r4.tgz) and [R4B (your.package.id.r4b)](package.r4b.tgz) are available.

Intellectual Property Consideration

### Intellectual Property Considerations

 While this implementation guide and the underlying FHIR are licensed as public domain, this guide may include examples making use of terminologies such as LOINC, SNOMED CT and others which have more restrictive licensing requirements. Implementers should make themselves familiar with licensing and any other constraints of terminologies, questionnaires, and other components used as part of their implementation process. In some cases, licensing requirements may limit the systems that data captured using certain questionnaires may be shared with.
