Resource Profile: ADHA Core Immunization

The purpose of this profile is to provide a core representation of an immunization for the electronic exchange of health information between individuals, healthcare providers, and the My Health Record system infrastructure in Australia. This profile supports a statement of the administration or non-administration of a vaccine.

This profile identifies the additional constraints, extensions, and value sets that build on and extend Immunization that are supported.

Where a more specific Immunization profile is applicable, e.g. record of immunisation from AIR, an implementation SHALL ensure the resource conforms to that specific profile.

This profile is designed to set a core Immunization standard for:

  • Query for a patient's immunisations
  • Record or update an immunisation record for a patient

This profile may be referred to by APIs, which will be listed here when available.

Profile specific guidance

None.

Boundaries and relationships

The following profiles build on the ADHA Core Immunization profile to define specific immunisation record types:

Notes:

Below is an overview of the mandatory and optional search parameters. FHIR search operations and the syntax used to describe the interactions is described here.

Name Type Conformance Description Path
identifier token SHALL Business identifier Immunization.identifier
patient:identifier token SHALL The patient for the vaccination record Immunization.subject.identifier
vaccine-code token SHALL Vaccine Product Administered Immunization.vaccineCode
date date SHALL Vaccination (non)-Administration Date Immunization.occurrence
status token SHALL Immunization event status Immunization.status
target-disease token SHOULD The target disease the dose is being administered against Immunization.protocolApplied.targetDisease

Mandatory Search Parameters

The following search parameters and search parameter combinations SHALL be supported:

  1. SHALL support searching for all immunisations for a patient using the patient:identifier search parameter:

    GET [base]/Immunization?patient:identifier={system|}[code]

    Example:

     GET [base]/Immunization?patient:identifier=http://ns.electronichealth.net.au/id/hi/ihi/1.0|8003608000228437
    

    Implementation Notes: Fetches a bundle of all Immunization resources for the specified patient (how to search by :identifier)

  2. SHALL support searching using the identifier search parameter:

    GET [base]/Immunization?identifier={system|}[code]

    Example:

     GET [base]/Immunization?identifier=urn:ietf:rfc:3986|urn:uuid:44a8f148-f5f7-447c-9e68-a9f06635ab6c
    

    Implementation Notes: Fetches a bundle containing any Immunization resources matching the identifier (how to search by token)

  3. SHALL support searching using the combination patient:identifier and vaccine-code and status search parameter:
    • including support for OR search on status (e.g.status={system|}[code],{system|}[code],...)

    GET [base]/Immunization?patient:identifier={system|}[code]&vaccine-code={system|}[code]&status={system|}[code]

    Example:

     GET [base]/Immunization?patient:identifier=http://ns.electronichealth.net.au/id/hi/ihi/1.0|8003608000228437&vaccine-code=http://snomed.info/sct|1525011000168107&status=completed
    

    Implementation Notes: Fetches a bundle of all Immunization resources with the vaccine code of an 1525011000168107 (Pfizer Comirnaty) and status for the specified patient (how to search by :identifier and how to search by token)

  4. SHALL support searching using the combination of the patient:identifier and date and status search parameters:
    • including support for OR search on status (e.g.status={system|}[code],{system|}[code],...)

    GET [base]/Immunization?patient:identifier={system|}[code]&date=[date]&status={system|}[code]

    Example:

     GET [base]/Immunization?patient:identifier=http://ns.electronichealth.net.au/id/hi/ihi/1.0|8003608000228437&date=ge2013-03-14
    

    Implementation Notes: Fetches a bundle of all Immunization resources for the specified patient that have a date greater than or equal to 21st Jan 2013. (how to search by :identifier and how to search by date)

  5. SHOULD support searching using the combination patient:identifier and target-disease and status search parameter:
    • including support for OR search on status (e.g.status={system|}[code],{system|}[code],...)

    GET [base]/Immunization?patient:identifier={system|}[code]&target-disease={system|}[code]&status={system|}[code]

    Example:

     GET [base]/Immunization?patient:identifier=http://ns.electronichealth.net.au/id/hi/ihi/1.0|8003608000228437&target-disease=http://snomed.info/sct|840539006
    

    Implementation Notes: Fetches a bundle of all Immunization resources with the target disease of an 840539006 (COVID-19) for the specified patient (how to search by :identifier and how to search by token)
