The purpose of this profile is to provide a representation of a Diagnostic Report document reference for the electronic exchange of health information between individuals, healthcare providers, and the My Health Record system infrastructure in Australia. This profile is intended to be capable of supporting reporting for specialist and other diagnostic disciplines, pathology disciplines, and imaging disciplines.

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

This profile is designed to set a DocumentReference standard for:

  • Query for a diagnostic report document reference for a patient
  • Record or update a diagnostic report document reference belonging to a patient

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

Profile specific guidance

None.

Boundaries and relationships

Other representations of profile: CSV, Excel, Schematron

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 Master Version Specific Identifier DocumentReference.identifier | DocumentReference.masterIdentifier
category token SHALL Categorization of document DocumentReference.category
subject:identifier token SHALL Who/what is the subject of the document DocumentReference.subject.identifier
type token SHALL Kind of composition (LOINC if possible) DocumentReference.code
date date SHALL When this document reference was created DocumentReference.date
status token SHALL current | superseded | entered-in-error DocumentReference.status

Mandatory Search Parameters

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

  1. SHALL support searching for all document references for a patient using the subject:identifier search parameter:

    GET [base]/DocumentReference?subject:identifier={system|}[code]

    Example:

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

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

  2. SHALL support searching using the identifier search parameter:

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

    Example:

     GET [base]/DocumentReference?identifier=urn:ietf:rfc:3986|urn:uuid:b487469d-810c-40ae-b5a9-c0beb9001c9f

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

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

    GET [base]/DocumentReference?subject:identifier={system|}[code]&category[code]&status={system|}[code]

    Example:

     GET [base]/DocumentReference?subject:identifier=http://ns.electronichealth.net.au/id/hi/ihi/1.0|8003608000228437&category=https://healthterminologies.gov.au/fhir/CodeSystem/nctis-data-components-1|100.32001&status=current

    Implementation Notes: Fetches a bundle of all DocumentReference resources with the category of "Pathology Report" for the specified patient (how to search by :identifier and how to search by token)

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

    GET [base]/DocumentReference?subject:identifier={system|}[code]&type={system|}[code]&status={system|}[code]

    Example:

     GET [base]/DocumentReference?subject:identifier=http://ns.electronichealth.net.au/id/hi/ihi/1.0|8003608000228437&type=https://healthterminologies.gov.au/fhir/CodeSystem/nctis-data-components-1|100.320016&status=current

    Implementation Notes: Fetches a bundle of all DocumentReference resources with the type of an 100.32001 (Pathology Report) for the specified patient (how to search by :identifier and how to search by token)

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

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

    Example:

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

    Implementation Notes: Fetches a bundle of all current DocumentReference 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)
