2) Assigned at the point of origination by the source EHR/PHR/HIT system;
3) Inseparably bound to the data element instance;
4) Maintained in perpetuity during the lifespan of that data element instance;
5) From source to use (point of origination to each ultimate point of use), including all intermediate stages and lifecycle events (retention, update/amendment, verification/attestation, exchange...).
6) Can be bound together within a correlated set - elements of content bound to elements of related context.
