- Note: (a) When a person who may or may not be sick encounters the health services for some specific purpose, such as to receive limited care or service for a current condition, to donate an organ or tissue, to receive prophylactic vaccination (immunization), or to discuss a problem which is in itself not a disease or injury.
- Note: (b) When some circumstance or problem is present which influences the person's health status but is not in itself a current illness or injury.
