Death Record Data Dictionary

Vital Records Death Reporting (VRDR) FHIR Implementation Guide, published by HL7 International / Public Health. This guide is not an authorized publication; it is the continuous build for version 3.0.0 built by the FHIR (HL7® FHIR® Standard) CI Build. This version is based on the current content of https://github.com/HL7/vrdr/ and changes regularly. See the Directory of published versions

Death Record IJE Mapping
Coded Content (Cause of Death)
Coded Content (Demographic)
Coded Content (Usual Work)
Not Implemented Content

The following table illustrates the mappings of fields in the Interjurisdictional Exchange (IJE) formats for death to profiles and fields within this FHIR Implementation guide. This information is provided to guide implementers who are transitioning from the familiar IJE to the new FHIR format for this information.

Note that string fields in FHIR-formatted data will often be subject to the same string length limitations of the IJE format for the same content. For example, name fields in IJE (e.g., DINSTI, GNAME) are restricted to 50 characters. Including strings longer than the IJE strength length limitations may lead to data truncation and/or business rule violations when data is sent to certain receivers, including NCHS. The IG includes maximum length restrictions on FHIR strings for some fields, and the FHIR validator will flag violations of these conformance restrictions. The IG does not impose maximum length restrictions for general FHIR fields like names and addresses since this seemed an unnatural constraint of widely used FHIR resources.

Death Record IJE Mapping

These fields are included in a VRO's submission of a death record (only input, or non-coded, content). IJE fields that are part of the Vital Statistics Cooperative Program (VSCP) reporting requirements as of 2022 are denoted with a US Flag.

Coded Content (Cause of Death)

These fields are included in the coded cause of death content sent by NCHS to VROs (including input, or non-coded, content). In total, these are equivalent to the Transax (TRX) content. Although not mapped to IJE, the death record identifier (YYYYJJNNNNNN) also includes death year and death state.

*Coded content is generated by NCHS and sent to VROs, and may be shared among VROs.
