EHDSEncounter Mapping

EHDSEncounter -> Encounter (HDR)
Ongoing alignment: The models are expected to continue evolving, with updates incorporated into this Implementation Guide to maintain alignment with the EHDS Implementing Acts.

EHDSEncounter -> Encounter (HDR)

This page explains how conceptual elements from the EHDSEncounter logical model are expressed in the corresponding FHIR EncounterEuHdr profile used by this Implementation Guide.

EHDSEncounter (Logical Model) Relationship Encounter (HDR)
Element Relation Resource Element Notes
header related-to Encounter . Dataset-level inherited header; not carried as a single element in Encounter.
header.subject equivalent Encounter subject Reference to PatientEuCore.
header.identifier equivalent Encounter identifier
header.author[x] related-to Encounter participant.individual Encounter does not include a dedicated author element. Authorship is typically inferred from the healthcare professional’s participation in the encounter, for example as admitter or discharger. If an explicit author is required, this could be represented using an appropriate participation (participant.type='AUT').
header.date related-to Encounter participant.period Encounter does not include a dedicated authorship date element. Authorship date may be inferred from the Encounter.period. If an explicit date is required, this could be represented using an appropriate participation (participant.type='AUT').
header.status equivalent Encounter status
header.source no-map Encounter participant.individual Encounter does not include a dedicated informant element. If informant details are required, this could be represented using an appropriate participation (participant.type='INF')
header.language equivalent Encounter language IETF language tag.
priority equivalent Encounter priority
type related-to Encounter type The model describes encounter kind, such as inpatient, ambulatory, or teleconsultation. Use Encounter.class for the broad class and Encounter.type for a more specific type.
type related-to Encounter class The model describes encounter kind, such as inpatient, ambulatory, or teleconsultation. Use Encounter.class for the broad class and Encounter.type for a more specific type.
period equivalent Encounter period
serviceProvider equivalent Encounter serviceProvider
referringProfessional related-to Encounter participant:referrer.individual Use participant.type = REF.
basedOn[x] equivalent Encounter basedOn
reason[x] related-to Encounter reasonCode / reasonReference Use reasonCode for CodeableConcept reasons and reasonReference for Condition, Procedure, or Observation reasons. String reasons require narrative text or an extension.
admission related-to Encounter hospitalization
admission.admitter equivalent Encounter participant:admitter.individual Use participant.type = ADM.
admission.admitSource equivalent Encounter hospitalization.admitSource
dischargeDiagnosis[x] related-to Encounter diagnosis.condition Use diagnosis.condition for a Condition reference and diagnosis.use for role if needed. A coded diagnosis should be represented as a Condition resource when a structured diagnosis is required.
dischargeDestination related-to Encounter hospitalization See dischargeDestination.type and .location mappings.
dischargeDestination.type related-to Encounter hospitalization.dischargeDisposition
dischargeDestination.location[x] related-to Encounter hospitalization.destination
serviceLocation related-to Encounter location
serviceLocation.period equivalent Encounter location.period
serviceLocation.organisationPart[x] related-to Encounter location.location
subEncounter related-to Encounter partOf FHIR Encounter.partOf points from the sub-encounter to the parent encounter.
note equivalent Encounter extension:note
