Hashing the value set expansions is also what we do at NCQA. HEDIS measures use some value sets that have well over 50,000 codes (acute conditions comes to mind). We...

Hey Justin - thank you for the response. I want to rebuild the source code which generated MARC.Everest.RMIM.UV.CDAr2.dll because we're trying to integrate Everest in an all-.NET Standard ecosystem, and...

Because we can implicitly convert a `ValueSetRef` to a `List`, it makes `List` the more attractive choice for all APIs because we can either do: ``` define function Foo(codes List):...

I can see it either way. I don't mind whether this is an implementation change or a spec change. We could tack this into the ELM spec: > When applied...

I have raised this issue with Bryn multiple times. The general problem is this: ``` case when foo is Patient then foo.birthDate else null end ``` The `cql-to-elm` compiler *does...

Note: ``` define "Alpha": 1 day = 1 'd' define "Beta": (1 day).unit = 'd' ``` `"Alpha"` is `true` in both the JavaScript and Java engines. `"Beta"` is `false` in...

Is your intent to create a native CQL version of the implementation of the `ICqlOperators` interface? Or will the functions be `external`?

Generic functions don't really exist in CQL. They're (mis)used in the specification to describe the signatures of operators, but they're not real. Each operator has a specific set of constraints...

How would you expect this to behave: ``` function "Handle choice"(choice Choice): case when choice is Integer then 1 when choice is String then 2 else 3 end define "Foo":...
