Transaction Optionality

[slagesse-epic]

Currently we are mandating that Patient Demographics Suppliers support both ITI-78 and ITI-119, while Patient Demographics Consumers have the option to choose to support either one or both transactions. Is requiring support for both transactions a problem for any Patient Demographics Suppliers? We note that prior versions of the specification included only ITI-78, meaning this is new functionality existing suppliers will need to incorporate. Do we want named options here?

My opinion is NOT to mandate both of them. I think the Suppliers could implement these transactions based on their use case demands/needs.

Add option for $match.

Will leave the issue open to allow for further comment.
