FHIR International Patient Summary
1.0.0-comment - ballot
FHIR International Patient Summary, published by IHE Patient Care Coordination Committee. This guide is not an authorized publication; it is the continuous build for version 1.0.0-comment built by the FHIR (HL7® FHIR® Standard) CI Build. This version is based on the current content of https://github.com/IHE/PCC.FIIO/ and changes regularly. See the Directory of published versions
This Test Plan page is a prototype. We expect the maturity of the content will improve over time. For now, we summarize high level testing scope and available tools. Comments are welcome. These are the summaries of the expectations of the test scripts that will be developed for the FIPS Test Plans.
The following test plans are generated for the content testing of the IPS. The testing events encourages testing paired with a transport. For education on what transports can be used for IPS documents please refer to the HIE Whitepaper
The goals of testing the IPS are:
For all Required if Known Sections or Elements there will be a testing requirement to express missing data due to being unavailable to the product rather than asserting it is not relevant by omission.
If there is no relevant information provided for a Must support/Required if Known section or element the section MAY be omitted and No Data ABsent/Empty Reason will be expected.
If the system does not have access to data to populate a Must Support/Required if Known Section or Data Element it SHALL contain an data absent/Empty Reason indicating why the information is unavailable. This is a patient Safety requirement to identify that the information cannot be assumed empty or irrelevant. This can be achieved using the Unavailable code for an Empty Reason at the Section level or a Data Absent Reason at the Entry level. This Distinguishes between an intentional omission of data determined my a mediator to not be relevant.
Handling
There are many elements within this profile that have the Handling Obligation for the Content Consumer system. During Testing the Content Consumer system will undergo visual inspection to review that the handling expectation is achieved.
Proof of handling can be done through the following Content Consumer Options:
Systems will be provided with a predetermined set of data expectations that SHALL be met before arriving at the testing event.
A number of patients for the testing options will be provided with the expected information that SHALL be generated into the patient record with the Content Creator system.
The patient information will range from a complex patient record to a simplistic one to properly test the implementation of the Mandatory and Recommended sections.
Sample Patient Records may be provided if the testing system would rather import predetermined patient information.
Overall test plan leverages the Profiles, and Examples shown on the Artifacts Summary. The Profiles listed are describing the constraints that would be adhered to by Actors claiming conformance to this implementation guide. Thus, any applicable Resources that are known to have been published by an app or server MUST be conformant to these profiles as appropriate.
The Examples listed in Example Instances are example instances. Some are conformant to the profiles. Other examples that either assist with the structure of the examples (e.g. Patient and Encounter) or are examples that should be able to handle in various ways.
The system under test will be required to document which data elements from the must support and required concepts can be collected and maintained within the product. This information will be used to verify expectations for missing content that will be examined in the resulting IPS Document. The Monitor will verify that this documentation is provided.
a. For the Occupational Data for Health Option
i. The system under test will be required to document which data elements supporting the Occupational Data for Health Option concepts can be collected and maintained within the product.
b. For the Complete Option
i. The system under test will be required to document which data elements supporting the Complete Option can be collected and maintained within the product.
Data will be provided for all required sections and data elements such that the system under test will be able to demonstrate inclusion of these concepts within the IPS document generated in the subsequent tests. Screenshots should be provided to show that the data has been added to the patient's record within the system.
a. For the Occupational Data for Health Option
i. Data will be provided for all data elements supporting the Occupational Data for Health Option.
b. For the Complete Option
i. Data will be provided for all data elements supporting the Complete Option.
This is a No Peer Test.
