Artifacts Summary

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

Structures: Resource Profiles

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

US SAFR Measure Bundle

This profile defines a Bundle provided by the MeasureServer containing a Measure resource and enables the inclusion of all related resources (ValueSet, Library, etc.).

If this fails, use the following FHIRPath expression to discover missing resources: Bundle.entry.resource.descendants().reference.where($this.startsWith('#').not()).where((%resource.entry.fullUrl.join('|')&'|').contains(($this&'|')).not())

US SAFR Measure Report Bundle

This profile defines a valid submission bundle to NHSN, federal and jurisdictional Public Health Agencies including State, Tribal, Local and Territorial (STLT) Health Departments with all resources contained within. The Bundle is comprised of entry slices representing the data submitting organization, submitting device, and individual MeasureReports.

If this fails, use the following FHIRPath expression to discover missing resources: Bundle.entry.resource.descendants().reference.where($this.startsWith('#').not()).where((%resource.entry.fullUrl.join('|')&'|').contains(($this&'|')).not())

US SAFR Submitting Organization

This profile includes the name and identifier of the organization submitting the report Bundle, and may include other information about the organization.
