US Public Health Profiles Library, published by HL7 International / Public Health. This guide is not an authorized publication; it is the continuous build for version 2.0.0 built by the FHIR (HL7® FHIR® Standard) CI Build. This version is based on the current content of https://github.com/HL7/fhir-us-ph-library/ and changes regularly. See the Directory of published versions

Complying with this implementation guide means complying with a number of profiles, extensions, value sets and custom search parameters. This page provides an overview of where this information can be found.
The artifacts are of five types:
Profiles defining what data is exchanged about health encounters, clinical findings, clinical history, and related concepts.
Profiles defining what data is exchanged about entities such as people, places, and organizations.
Extensions defining what data about entities is exchanged.
Profiles that are related to how data is defined and exchanged. These profiles support representation and use of metadata to support consistent content lifecycle management.
Extension profiles that are related to how data is defined and exchanged.
Terminology profiles that are related to how data is defined and exchanged. These profiles support representation and use of metadata to address terminology concerns and support consistent content lifecycle management.
The US Public Health ValueSet defines minimum base conformance requirements for a ValueSet used in public health.
The US Public Health Triggering ValueSet defines conformance requirements for a ValueSet that is part of determination of a potentially reportable event (i.e. a "triggering" event).
The US Public Health Specification Library defines conformance requirements for a public health reporting program specification, typically consisting of a ValueSet library and other supporting specifications such as PlanDefinitions.
The US Public Health Triggering ValueSet Library defines conformance requirements for a collection of ValueSets that are all used to facilitate determination of a potentially reportable event (i.e. a "triggering" event).
The US Public Health Supplemental Library defines conformance requirements for the computable supplement for a public health reporting program specification, including computable routing rules that can be evaluated to help facilitate reportability determination at reporting sites, typically consisting of Clinical Quality Language (CQL) Rule libraries and additional terminology artifacts required to evaluate those rules.
