This assessment gathers information on a specific medical condition (Asthma) for a client, to attempt to determine the severity of that condition. That outcome may then be used outside Decision Assist in deciding upon a client's eligibility for disability benefits.
This example of a medical assessment uses a single determination type, and is a standalone assessment. Medical assessments were originally conceived as holding multiple determination types in Decision Assist. That is to say, each condition to be assessed would be set up as a different determination configuration, and all of these determination configurations would be associated to a single assessment. Although the Administration component supports this, the Determination Based Assessment component, for this release, does not (see section 3.7.1, Setting up Determination Configurations for an Assessment Configuration).
