An International Patient Summary (IPS) document is an electronic health record extract containing essential healthcare information about a subject of care. As specified in EN 17269 and ISO 27269, it is designed for supporting the use case scenario for ‘unplanned, cross border care’, but it is not limited to it. It is intended to be international, i.e., to provide generic solutions for global application beyond a particular region or country.
The CH IPS is an implementable, testable FHIR specification based on the IPS specification as defined by HL7 and ISO.
The CH IPS profile set is closely aligned with the HL7 IPS-UV specification while still supporting localized needs for Switzerland and reducing barriers to early adoption.
To be able to guarantee this, the CH IPS profiles are derived from the respective CH Core profiles and conformity with the corresponding IPS profile is ensured with the imposeProfile extension.

CH IPS follows the General Principles and Design Conventions of the International Patient Summary IG. Please check the detailed information there.
In the CH IPS IG, only a few key points are highlighted and visualized in a simplified form:
true. Must Support (MS) in CH IPS applies to the same elements as defined in IPS and the same rules also take effect.

Profiling in CH IPS is kept to a minimum and focuses on Swiss use. In order to avoid duplication, which could lead to conflicts in future versions, not all restrictions (e.g. must support, cardinalities, constraints) of the IPS are repeated in the CH IPS profiles. The imposeProfile extension ensures the validation of conformity with both profiles.
This implementation guide defines data elements, resources, formats, and methods for exchanging healthcare data between different participants in the healthcare process. As such, clinical safety is a key concern. Additional guidance regarding safety for the specification’s many and various implementations is available at: https://www.hl7.org/FHIR/safety.html.
Although the present specification does gives users the opportunity to observe data protection and data security regulations, its use does not guarantee compliance with these regulations. Effective compliance must be ensured by appropriate measures during implementation projects and in daily operations. The corresponding implementation measures are explained in the standard. In addition, the present specification can only influence compliance with the security regulations in the technical area of standardization. It cannot influence organizational and contractual matters.
