=LRI Abstract Model=

This wiki page is to facilitate the discussion of the LRI Abstract Model and finalize on the systems and interactions involved.

Introduction
The purpose of the Abstract Model is to model the Use Case. It is a mechanism that will be used to help the broad S&I community visualize the information flow between the systems that are involved in the LRI transitions based on the user stories that have been created. As the LRI Abstract Model is to be transport agnostic, it will be limited to the information data and transactions.

Terms and Definitions
The following terms and definitions are relevant with respect to the abstract model:

__**Input to LIS Information**__ - Prior to sending the Lab Test Results, the Laboratory will have received the Minimally required information for an Order along with the necessary Specimen information. //**The mechanism for receiving this information is out of scope.**//


 * __LRI Test Results Data__** - The Laboratory Results Interface defines the content that is exchanged between the actors in the LRI Use Story. The LRI Reference Implementation (LRI RI) will support the creation and validation of this content. The following LRI Information have been identified as critical for the LRI Initiative
 * LRI Message shall include the Minimally required data from the Order
 * LRI Message shall include the required CLIA Reporting Data (and other required Federal/State required data)
 * LRI Message shall include the Test Results
 * LRI Message shall include the Reporting Statuses of Preliminary, Final, Appended, Corrected and/or Amended.
 * LRI Message shall be bi-directional.


 * __Source__** - The LIS creating the LRI Data that will be provided to the consumer to provide Laboratory Test Results. The Source fulfills the role of "Results Sender" (ref __Laboratory Results Interface Initiative Laboratory Results Reporting to Primary Care Providers (in an Ambulatory Setting)__ section 9.0 Actors and Roles).


 * __Consumer__** - One or more person(s) or entit(ies) receiving the LRI Data to be presented as a human readable Laboratory Test Results Report. The Consumer fulfills the roles of "Order Placer" and "Results Receiver" (ref __Laboratory Results Interface Initiative laboratory Results Reporting to Primary Care Providers (in an Ambulatory Setting)__ section 9.0 Actors and Roles).


 * __Source IT System:__** The IT System used by the Source to create the Laboratory Results Interface to transmit the Laboratory Test Results to the Consumer. This system is a Laboratory Interface System.

__**Consumer IT System**__ - The IT System used by the Consumer to receive the Laboratory Interface Data that will be transmitted by the Source. This can be a certified EHR system capable of displaying Laboratory Test Results.

LRI Abstract Model
The Abstract Model and the interactions are as shown in the diagram below along with the terms and definitions that are relevant to the abstract model. The exact IT mechanisms that will be used to implement the interactions in a real world system are outside the scope of the abstract model.
