The US Core Provenance Profile inherits from the FHIR Provenance resource; refer to it for scope and usage definitions. This profile sets minimum expectations for the Provenance resource to record, search, and fetch provenance information associated with a record. It covers the minimal (basic) information to support lineage of information. It specifies which core elements, extensions, vocabularies, and value sets SHALL be present and constrains how the elements are used. Before reviewing this profile, implementers are encouraged to read the Basic Provenance guidance page, which documents several key use cases, specifically, the organization responsible for the most recent action on the resource.

Example Usage Scenarios:

The following are example usage scenarios for this profile:

  • Query for the Provenance records associated with an Allergy
  • Query for the Provenance records associated with a Problem

Mandatory and Must Support Data Elements

The following data elements are mandatory (i.e., data MUST be present) or must be supported if the data is present in the sending system (Must Support definition). They are presented below in a simple human-readable explanation. Profile specific guidance and examples are provided as well. The Formal Views below provides the formal summary, definitions, and terminology requirements.

Each Provenance Must Have:

  1. a reference to the resource(s) the Provenance record is supporting (target)
  2. a date and time for the activity

Each Provenance Must Support:

  1. the author organization responsible for the information
  2. the transmitter that provided the information
  3. the transmitter organization responsible for the transmission (if the transmitter is a device, the transmitter organization must also be valued).

Profile Specific Implementation Guidance:

  • The US Core Provenance resource SHALL be supported for these US Core resource types:
    • AllergyIntolerance
    • CarePlan
    • CareTeam
    • Condition
    • Coverage
    • Device
    • DiagnosticReport
    • DocumentReference
    • Encounter
    • Goal
    • Immunization
    • MedicationDispense
    • MedicationRequest
    • Observation
    • Patient
    • Procedure
    • QuestionnaireResponse
    • RelatedPerson
    • ServiceRequest
  • If a system receives a provider in Provenance.agent.who as free text, they must capture who sent them the information as the organization. On request, they SHALL provide this organization as the source and MAY include the free text provider.
  • Systems that need to know the activity has occurred SHOULD populate the activity.

Quick Start


Below is an overview of the required Server RESTful FHIR interactions for this profile - for example, search and read operations - when supporting the US Core interactions to access this profile's information (Profile Support + Interaction Support). Note that systems that support only US Core Profiles (Profile Only Support) are not required to support these interactions. See the US Core Server CapabilityStatement for a complete list of supported RESTful interactions for this IG.

  • See the Scopes Format section for a description of the SMART scopes syntax.
  • See the Search Syntax section for a description of the US Core search syntax.
  • See the General Requirements section for additional rules and expectations when a server requires status parameters.
  • See the General Guidance section for additional guidance on searching for multiple patients.

US Core Scopes

Servers providing access to provenance data SHALL support these US Core SMART Scopes:

Mandatory Search Parameters:

The following search parameters, search parameter combinations SHALL be supported. Any listed search parameter modifiers, comparators, chains and composites SHALL also be supported UNLESS they are listed as "optional" in which case theySHOULD be supported:

  1. SHALL support searching for all US Core Profile resource types listed above for a patient and all the Provenance records for those resources using a combination of the patient and _revinclude search parameters:

    GET [base]/[Resource]?patient=[id]&_revinclude=Provenance:target

    Example:

    1. GET [base]/AllergyIntolerance?patient=[id]5&_revinclude=Provenance:target

    Implementation Notes: Fetches a bundle of all resources of a particular type for the specified patient (how to search by reference) and any corresponding Provenance resources.

  2. SHALL support searching for a particular instance of a US Core Profile resource type listed above and all its Provenance resources using combination of the _id and the _revinclude search parameters:

    GET [base]/[Resource]?_id=[id]&_revinclude=Provenance:target

    Example:

    1. GET [base]/AllergyIntolerance?_id=[id]&_revinclude=Provenance:target

    Implementation Notes: Fetches a bundle of a resource of a particular type (within the clients authorization scope) and any corresponding Provenance resources. (how to search by token)
