If I recall correctly, we were thinking to stay away from SSOOAAPP 
notes i.e. any one health issue intersecting any one encounter would 
have at _most_ only one row each of SOAP (except that one additional S 
row could hold is_rfe, and one additional A row could hold is_aoe).

Therefore, when you say we can have several soAp rows, were you 
referring instead that several _health issues_ could each have one soAp 
row, totaling several soAp rows for the one physical visit?
