Interoperable Digital Identity and Patient Matching
2.0.0-ballot - STU2 Ballot United States of America flag

Interoperable Digital Identity and Patient Matching, published by HL7 International / Patient Administration. This guide is not an authorized publication; it is the continuous build for version 2.0.0-ballot built by the FHIR (HL7® FHIR® Standard) CI Build. This version is based on the current content of https://github.com/HL7/fhir-identity-matching-ig/ and changes regularly. See the Directory of published versions

Artifacts Summary

Contents:

This page provides a list of the FHIR artifacts defined as part of this implementation guide.

Behavior: Operation Definitions

These are custom operations that can be supported by and/or invoked by systems conforming to this implementation guide.

IDI Match Operation

This extension of the $match operation is further constrained to meet the additional requirements found in this IG. One of the IDI Patient profiles outline in this guide (IDI-Patient, IDI-Patient-L0, IDI-Patient-L1) SHALL be used as the input for the match request. An IDI-Match-Bundle will be returned to the requesting entity. This Bundle will contain the full URLs of the sourced information, an Organization resource, and any matched Patient resources.

Structures: Resource Profiles

These define constraints on FHIR resources for systems conforming to this implementation guide.

FAST Identity UDAP Person

Profile on Person for use with the Interoperable Digital Identity and Patient Matching IG
IDI Match Bundle

Bundle requirements for responders of a $IDI-match request.
IDI Match Input Parameters

The Parameters profile used to define the inputs of the $IDI-match operation using an IDI-Patient profile for submission.
IDI Match Output Parameters

The Parameters profile used to define the outputs of the $IDI-match operation.
IDI Patient

(Base Level) The goal of this profile is to describe a data-minimized version of Patient used to convey information about the patient for Identity Matching utilizing the $match operation. Only requires that 'some valuable data' be populated within the Patient resource and utilizes no weighting of element values.
IDI Patient L0

(Level 0 weighting) The goal of this profile is to describe a data-minimized version of Patient used to convey information about the patient for Identity Matching utilizing the $match operation, and prescribe a minimum set of data elements which meet a combined 'weighted level' of at least 9
IDI Patient L1

(Level 1 weighting) The goal of this profile is to describe a data-minimized version of Patient used to convey information about the patient for Identity Matching utilizing the $match operation, and prescribe a minimum set of data elements which meet a combined 'weighted level' of at least 10 and using attributes that are consistent with an identity that has been verified by the match requestor

Terminology: Value Sets

These define sets of codes used by systems conforming to this implementation guide.

Identity Identifier Value Set

Codes describing various identifiers to be used in Patient resource for $match.

Terminology: Code Systems

These define new code systems used by systems conforming to this implementation guide.

Identity Identifier Code System

Defining codes for describing specialized identifiers to be used in Patient resource for $match.

Terminology: Naming Systems

These define identifier and/or code system identities used by systems conforming to this implementation guide.

Identity-HL7-Identifier

Digital Identifier to assist in patient matching.
