National Directory of Healthcare Providers & Services (NDH) Implementation Guide, published by HL7 International / Patient Administration. This guide is not an authorized publication; it is the continuous build for version 2.0.0-current built by the FHIR (HL7® FHIR® Standard) CI Build. This version is based on the current content of https://github.com/HL7/fhir-us-ndh/ and changes regularly. See the Directory of published versions

Resource Profile: NDH HealthcareService Profile

Official URL: http://hl7.org/fhir/us/ndh/StructureDefinition/ndh-HealthcareService Version: 2.0.0-current
Standards status: Trial-use Maturity Level: 4 Computable Name: NdhHealthcareService
Other Identifiers: OID:2.16.840.1.113883.4.642.40.43.42.42

This profile enables NDH to represent healthcare and community services in a consistent, searchable way so consumers can identify what is offered, where and how it is delivered, and who can access it; it adds extensions for ratings, new-patient intake, delivery method, funding, required documents, network linkage, and verification, and strengthens interoperability with ValueSet-constrained categories, types, specialties, provision conditions, eligibility codes, and programs.

Search Use Cases

Search for All Organizations and Locations that Provide a Given HealthcareService

If you run the search below for the HealthcareService called BurrClinicServices, it should return a search bundle that includes the BurrClinicServices resource, as well as the associated BurrClinic Organization resource and the HospLoc1 Location resource. This indicates that the BurrClinic organization provides the BurrClinicServices healthcare service at the HospLoc1 location.

GET [base]/HealthcareService?_id=BurrClinicServices&_include=HealthcareService:organization&_include=HealthcareService:location

or

GET [base]/OrganizationAffiliation?service:HealthcareService._id=BurrClinicServices

To search for a specific OrganizationAffiliation and its associated resources, you can use the following query:

GET [base]/OrganizationAffiliation?_id=BurrClinicAffil&_include=OrganizationAffiliation:service&_include=OrganizationAffiliation:location&_include=OrganizationAffiliation:participating-organization&_include=OrganizationAffiliation:network

Usage

Network extension

The primary intention for the network extension of the HealthcareService is to cater to services related to social services. Typically, healthcare service networks are tied to insurance plans. However, in the realm of social services, the delivery or subscription of services often occurs through a hub. This hub embodies a similar concept to a network, but without an insurance plan attached. To simplify the process of locating such hubs (networks), NDH offers a connection from the healthcare server to the network. For instance, the Welcome Home organization provides housing services at the Welcome Home location. This service is subscribed to through the Social Service Housing Network.

Healthcare Service and Program Requirement extensions

The extension for Healthcare Service or Program Requirement is applied at both the Service and Program levels. Each Service or Program can have multiple requirements, and each requirement can have several constraints. For instance, one service could be specifically for teens, another for females, or even one designed exclusively for teenage girls.

Language Speak extension

If a service supports multiple languages, up to six for example, it's unlikely that these would be restricted within this extension. Instead, the languages spoken should be documented under the "healthcareService.communication" field.

User requests a healthcare service delivered by an organization at a location

The recommended approach for a user requesting a healthcare service provided by an organization at a location is to use the healthcare service resource. This depends on whether the nature of the service is offered at a single location or across multiple locations.

If a healthcare service is available at multiple locations, each location may have unique endpoints, operating hours, and telecom. The specific data for each location concerning endpoints, operating hours, and telecom (HealthcareService.location => Location.endpoint, Location.hoursOfOperation, Location.telecom …) will supersede the general data provided at the healthcare service resource instance level (HealthcareService.endpoint, HealthcareService.availableTime, HealthcareService.telecom …). This approach provides flexibility: it permits the use of unified endpoints, operating hours, and telephones for the healthcare service when the information is consistent across all locations, while also allowing for differences in endpoints and operating hours at various locations.
