The PH Core Patient profile captures key demographic and administrative information about individuals receiving care or other health-related services in the Philippines.

Birth Date and Age Derivation

Deriving birthDate from Age Information

Implementers should derive birthDate from age information rather than capturing age in extensions or other elements. This ensures consistency and interoperability across implementations.

Rules for Setting birthDate with Partial Age Information

When only partial age information is known, set birthDate according to the following rules:

Back-Calculation for Display

When deriving birthDate from age, systems should assume the earliest possible date within the known granularity for display purposes:

• If only the year is known → default to January 1st of that year
• If only the month and year are known → default to the first day of that month

Important Considerations

1. Indicate Approximation: Display logic should clearly indicate that the birthDate is approximate when derived from incomplete age information.

2. Prompt for Updates: Systems should prompt for more precise birth date information when it becomes available.

3. Avoid Dynamic Age Elements: Do not capture dynamic data (e.g., calculated Age) in static elements or extensions, as these would require server updates to remain current.

4. Use FHIR Search: The standard FHIR birthDate search parameter is sufficient for filtering patients by age ranges for clinical studies and reporting.
