EncounterClassHistory

open class EncounterClassHistory: BackboneElement

List of past encounter classes.

The class history permits the tracking of the encounters transitions without needing to go through the resource history.

This would be used for a case where an admission starts of as an emergency encounter, then transisions into an inpatient scenario. Doing this and not restarting a new encounter ensures that any lab/diagnostic results can more easily follow the patient and not require re-processing and not get lost or cancelled during a kindof discharge from emergency to inpatient.
