InformationStructureDefinition.commentValues for comment differ: ''Null' or exceptional values can be represented two ways in FHIR Observations. One way is to simply include them in the value set and represent the exceptions in the value. The alternate way is to use the value element for actual observations and use the explicit dataAbsentReason element to record exceptional values. For a given LOINC question, if the LOINC answer list includes concepts such as 'unknown' or 'not available', they should be used for Observation.value. Where these concepts are not part of the value set for Observation.value, the Observation.dataAbsentReason can be used if necessary and appropriate.' vs 'Null or exceptional values can be represented two ways in FHIR Observations. One way is to simply include them in the value set and represent the exceptions in the value. For example, measurement values for a serology test could be 'detected', 'not detected', 'inconclusive', or 'specimen unsatisfactory'. The alternate way is to use the value element for actual observations and use the explicit dataAbsentReason element to record exceptional values. For example, the dataAbsentReason code 'error' could be used when the measurement was not completed. Note that an observation may only be reported if there are values to report. For example differential cell counts values may be reported only when > 0. Because of these options, use-case agreements are required to interpret general observations for null or exceptional values.'

InformationStructureDefinition.commentValues for comment differ: 'This grouping element is used to represent surveys, screenings, and assessments that group several questions together or individual questions with “check all that apply” responses.

When there is a heirarchical grouping of questions, the observation 'panels' can be nested.

      .descriptionThe US Core Observation Screening Assessment Profile inherits from the FHIR [Observation](https://hl7.org/fhir/R4/observation.html) resource; refer to it for scope and usage definitions. This profile meets the requirements of the U.S. Core Data for Interoperability (USCDI) *Health Status Assessments* Data Class. It sets the minimum expectations for the Observation Resource to record, search, and fetch observations representing the questions and responses to surveys and screening and assessment tools. For example, a social history status such as education or food insecurity or an assessment of cognitive, functional, or disability status. It can represent a single response, multiple responses, and multi-select "check all that apply" type questions. This profile specifies which core elements, extensions, vocabularies, and value sets **SHALL** be present in the resource and constrains how the elements are used. Providing the floor for standards development for specific use cases promotes interoperability and adoption. Before reviewing this profile, implementers are encouraged to read the Screening and Assessments guidance page, which documents the process of recording responses and capturing assertions/determinations resulting from surveys and questionnaires.Manner of Death (Observation)
