&lt;P&gt;The changes are as follows:&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;UL&gt;
&lt;LI&gt;The type of the "Type" member was changed from string to CodableValue. We think that there is likely a good vocabulary that can be established to better identify the type of the encounter.&lt;/LI&gt;
&lt;LI&gt;We removed the Id member, as it wasn't clear how it could be generally useful.&lt;/LI&gt;
&lt;LI&gt;We replaced the Location member with a new FacilityName member. This member is of a new base type t:organization, which stores the name and contact information (address/phone/email) for the organization. &lt;/LI&gt;&lt;/UL&gt;
&lt;P&gt;If you have any feedback, please let us know. &lt;/P&gt;&lt;img src="http://blogs.msdn.com/aggbug.aspx?PostID=8346733" width="1" height="1"&gt;</description><category domain="http://blogs.msdn.com/healthvaultdatatypes/archive/tags/Encounter/default.aspx">Encounter</category></item><item><title>Request for interest: type to store a hospitalization summary </title><link>http://blogs.msdn.com/healthvaultdatatypes/archive/2008/02/25/request-for-interest-type-to-store-a-hospitalization-summary.aspx</link><pubDate>Mon, 25 Feb 2008 22:13:00 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">91d46819-8472-40ad-a661-2c78acb4018c:7895458</guid><dc:creator>ericgu</dc:creator><slash:comments>1</slash:comments><comments>http://blogs.msdn.com/healthvaultdatatypes/comments/7895458.aspx</comments><wfw:commentRss>http://blogs.msdn.com/healthvaultdatatypes/commentrss.aspx?PostID=7895458</wfw:commentRss><description>&lt;P&gt;We have had a request to store summary information about a hospitalization, including admission and discharge dates, the name and location of the hospital and some comments. This may result in a new type, or perhaps the modification of an existing type.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;If your application would find utility in such a type, please reply to this post (preferred) or use the "contact me" link to send an email if you wish your feedback to be private. &lt;/P&gt;&lt;img src="http://blogs.msdn.com/aggbug.aspx?PostID=7895458" width="1" height="1"&gt;</description><category domain="http://blogs.msdn.com/healthvaultdatatypes/archive/tags/Encounter/default.aspx">Encounter</category></item></channel></rss>
