[CAP] question for the list

[Larry Nathanson]

Tom & Rex--

Thank you very much for the suggestions.

One question -- the EMS dataset at NEMSIS seems to have much of what 
I'm looking for, with one major exception.  I didn't see a way of 
indicating the triage acuity or injury severity of the patient.  Did 
I just miss that in the spec?

Thanks again...

--L
