Public Health Agencies - Test Package and Resources
Rendering Testing
This test package provides instructions for rendering XML electronic case reporting (eCR) documents into human-readable HTML for use by surveillance personnel, as well as samples to compare against. HTML rendering is used primarily for out-of-jurisdiction eCR connections, prior to integration with public health agency (PHA) surveillance systems.

PHA partners can use this test package throughout the integration process. It includes various eICR/RR samples designed to test routing, deduplication and case creation, and data mapping.
