AU Core Implementation Guide
2.0.1-ci-build - CI Build AU

AU Core Implementation Guide, published by HL7 Australia. This guide is not an authorized publication; it is the continuous build for version 2.0.1-ci-build built by the FHIR (HL7® FHIR® Standard) CI Build. This version is based on the current content of https://github.com/hl7au/au-fhir-core/ and changes regularly. See the Directory of published versions

## Resource Profile: AU Core Organization

Official URL: http://hl7.org.au/fhir/core/StructureDefinition/au-core-organization | Version: 2.0.1-ci-build
Standards status: Trial-use | Maturity Level: 2 | Computable Name: AUCoreOrganization
Copyright/Legal: Used by permission of HL7 International, all rights reserved Creative Commons License. HL7 Australia© 2022+; Licensed Under Creative Commons No Rights Reserved.

This profile sets minimum expectations for a Organization resource to record, search, and fetch information about an organisation. It is based on the AU Base Organization profile and identifies the additional mandatory core elements, extensions, vocabularies and value sets that SHALL be present in the Organization when conforming to this profile. It provides the floor for standards development for specific uses cases in an Australian context.

See Comparison with other national and international IGs for a comparison between AU Core profiles and profiles in other implementation guides.

### Usage Scenarios

The following are supported usage scenarios for this profile:

- Query for basic information for an organisation by name or identifier
- Recording or updating basic information for an organisation
- Read information about an organisation referenced by another resource

### Profile Specific Implementation Guidance

- See guidance on the construction of an identifier on the relevant Identifier profile page and the section on Business Identifiers in AU Base.
- When constructing an address:
  - an international address can be represented using the core Address data type
  - an Australian address SHOULD be represented using the Australian Address data type profile

Usages:

- Refer to this Profile: AU Core Pathology Result Observation, AU Core Diagnostic Result Observation, AU Core Encounter, AU Core Location... Show 2 more, AU Core MedicationRequest and AU Core PractitionerRole
- Examples for this Profile: Bobrester Medical Center, Mitchells Hill Audiology and Murrabit Public Hospital
- CapabilityStatements using this Profile: AU Core Requester CapabilityStatement and AU Core Responder CapabilityStatement

You can also check for usages in the FHIR IG Statistics

Changes since version 1.0.0:

- The resource metadata has changed (description)
- The data elements list has changed

Summary

Mandatory: 1 element
Must-Support: 9 elements

Structures

This structure refers to these other structures:

- AU HPI-O (http://hl7.org.au/fhir/StructureDefinition/au-hpio)
- AU Australian Business Number (http://hl7.org.au/fhir/StructureDefinition/au-australianbusinessnumber)

Slices

This structure defines the following Slices:

- The element 1 is sliced based on the value of Organization.identifier

Maturity: 2

Other representations of profile: CSV, Excel, Schematron

### Notes:

Below is an overview of the mandatory and optional search parameters and combined search parameters. See the AU Core CapabilityStatements for a complete list of supported RESTful interactions for this IG.

FHIR search operations are described here and the syntax used to describe AU Core interactions is defined here.

Any search parameter defined in FHIR may be 'allowed' by the system unless explicitly marked as "SHALL NOT". A few items are marked as MAY in this implementation guide to highlight their potential relevance.

Parameter(s) | Conformance | Type(s) | Requirements (when used alone or in combination)
--- | --- | --- | ---
identifier | SHALL | `token` | The requester SHALL provide both the system and code values. The responder SHALL support both. The requester SHOULD support search using HPI-O and ABN identifiers as defined in the profile. The responder SHOULD support search using the using HPI-O and ABN identifiers as defined in the profile.
name | SHALL | `string` |
address | SHOULD | `string` |
_id | SHOULD | `token` |

#### Mandatory Search Parameters

The following search parameters SHALL be supported:

1. SHALL support searching using the `identifier` search parameter:

   `GET [base]/Organization?identifier=[system|][code]`

   Example:

   1. GET [base]/Organization?identifier=http://ns.electronichealth.net.au/id/hi/hpio/1.0|8003626566707032
   2. GET [base]/Organization?identifier=http://hl7.org.au/id/abn|23964200000

   Implementation Notes: Fetches a bundle containing all Organization resources matching the identifier (how to search by token)

2. SHALL support searching based on text name using the `name` search parameter:

   `GET [base]/Organization?name=[string]`

   Example:

   1. GET [base]/Organization?name=Hospital

   Implementation Notes: Fetches a bundle of all Organization resources matching the name (how to search by string)

#### Optional Search Parameters:

The following search parameters SHOULD be supported:

1. SHOULD support searching based on text address using the `address` search parameter:

   `GET [base]/Organization?address=[string]`

   Example:

   1. GET [base]/Organization?address=QLD

   Implementation Notes: Fetches a bundle of all Organization resources matching the address (how to search by string)

2. SHOULD support searching using the `_id` search parameter:

   `GET [base]/Organization?_id=[id]`

   Example:

   1. GET [base]/Organization?_id=5678

   Implementation Notes: Fetches a bundle with the requested Organization, instead of just the resource itself, and allows for the inclusion of additional search parameters such as _include, _revinclude, or _lastUpdated (how to search by id of the resource)
