The MedMorph team requests that Medication Administered Performer is published separately rather than being placed in Care Team Members as recommended by ONC. The ability to tie a performer to a medication administration needs to be explicitly identified in USCDI. We propose keeping Medication Administered Performer as a separate data element OR establishing a reference within the Medications class that connects to the Care Team Members class.
