The purpose of this profile is to define a representation of GP practice registration information for a patient from MyMedicare for the electronic exchange of health information between individuals, healthcare providers, and the My Health Record system infrastructure in Australia.

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

This profile is designed to set an EpisodeOfCare standard for:

  • Query for a patient's registered GP practice information from MyMedicare
  • Reading a patient’s registered GP practice information from MyMedicare

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

Profile specific guidance

  • Information about the GP Practice is represented with an Organization resource that is referenced in EpisodeOfCare.managingOrganization and Patient.generalPractitioner
  • Practitioner name is represented in Patient.generalPractitioner.display with Patient.generalPractitioner.type="PractitionerRole", see example Patient's registered GP practice and practitioner name
  • In an exchange with the My Health Record system the set of resources that make up patient GP practice registration information are collected in a Bundle

Boundaries and relationships

This profile is not referenced by another profile in this implementation guide.

Usage:

  • This Resource Profile is not used by any profiles in this Implementation Guide

Structures

This structure refers to these other structures:

Slices

This structure defines the following Slices:

  • The element 1 is sliced based on the value of EpisodeOfCare.type

 

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
patient:identifier token SHALL The patient who is the focus of this episode of care EpisodeOfCare.patient.identifier
status token SHALL The current status of the Episode of Care as provided (does not check the status history collection) active | finished EpisodeOfCare.status
date date SHOULD The provided date search value falls within the episode of care's period EpisodeOfCare.period

Mandatory Search Parameters

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

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

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

    Example:

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

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

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

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

    Example:

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

    Implementation Notes: Fetches a bundle of the active EpisodeOfCare resources for the specified patient (how to search by :identifier and how to search by token)

  3. SHOULD 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]/EpisodeOfCare?patient:identifier={system|}[code]&date=[date]&status={system|}[code]

    Example:

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

    Implementation Notes: Fetches a bundle of all active EpisodeOfCare 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)
