Hi all,
I'm validating a C-CDA against the SVAP USCDI v4 test data for 170.315(b)(1) Transitions of Care, Inpatient setting, Sample 1 (170.315_b1_toc_inp_uscdiv4_sample1_v1.pdf).
The NIST/SITE C-CDA validator is throwing the following content validation error:
"The scenario contains Facility data with type 1160-1, however there is no matching data in the submitted CCDA"
However, the published Sample 1 PDF test data (Section D, Encounter Diagnoses) explicitly instructs the following for the Service Delivery Location on both encounter diagnosis rows (D63.1/ICD-10 and 234348004/SNOMED-CT):
Facility Type Code = 1027-2 ("Medical Critical Care")
CodeSystem = Healthcare Service Location Code System (2.16.840.1.113883.6.259)
I built my C-CDA to match the PDF instructions exactly (code 1027-2), but the validator is instead expecting code 1160-1 ("Urgent Care Center") in that same codeSystem, and is not finding it in my submission.
Could you please confirm:
1. Is this a known discrepancy between the published Sample 1 PDF and the validator's internal expected-data/scenario file for this criterion?
2. Should vendors use 1027-2 (per the PDF) or 1160-1 (per the validator), or does the validator accept either?
3. If this is a bug, is there a timeline for the validator's scenario file being updated to match the current SVAP USCDI v4 PDF?
Happy to share my submitted CCDA XML if that's helpful for troubleshooting.
Thank you!
