Finally, make the ODH Sub-Section Optional –
Employment Status Observation /
Occupation Observation /
Usual Occupation Observation
MAY be included in the root Social History Section if the document is not an Occupational Data for Health report (presuming future ODH will make a document-level template)
At this point, you could even make these 3 templates conform to C-CDA Social History Observation, since the base requirements are the same.
