Zimbabwe Core IG, published by MOH Zimbabwe. This guide is not an authorized publication; it is the continuous build for version 0.1.0 built by the FHIR (HL7® FHIR® Standard) CI Build. This version is based on the current content of https://github.com/mohcc/fhir-zw-core-ig/ and changes regularly. See the Directory of published versions

This page provides a list of the FHIR artifacts defined as part of this implementation guide.
These define constraints on FHIR resources for systems conforming to this implementation guide.
| Zimbabwe Encounter |
An interaction between a patient and one or more healthcare providers at a Zimbabwe health facility (e.g. an outpatient visit or inpatient admission). |
| Zimbabwe Location |
Location profile for Zimbabwe: a physical place where care is delivered, managed by a Zimbabwe Organization. |
| Zimbabwe Organization |
Organization profile for Zimbabwe, used primarily for health facilities (hospitals, clinics, health centres). |
| Zimbabwe Patient |
Patient profile for Zimbabwe core data: demographics, national identifiers, citizenship, place of birth, contact details and preferred language. |
| Zimbabwe Practitioner |
Practitioner profile for Zimbabwe: a health worker with a professional council registration number and core demographics. |
| Zimbabwe Related Person |
A person related to a Zimbabwe patient (e.g. next of kin, guardian or emergency contact). |
These define constraints on FHIR data types for systems conforming to this implementation guide.
| Patient Citizenship |
The patient's legal status as citizen of a country. |
These define sets of codes used by systems conforming to this implementation guide.
| Gender Value Set |
Administrative Gender |
| MaritalStatus Value Set |
Administrative Marital Status |
| Zimbabwe Country (Nationality) Value Set |
Countries used for citizenship/nationality in Zimbabwe (ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 aligned). |
| Zimbabwe District Value Set |
Districts (and metropolitan sub-units) of Zimbabwe, coded by their 4-character district code (province + district). |
| Zimbabwe Health Facility Type Value Set |
Tiers of health facility in the Zimbabwe public health system. |
| Zimbabwe Language Value Set |
Official languages of Zimbabwe (per the 2013 Constitution, Section 6), expressed as BCP-47 codes. |
| Zimbabwe Province Value Set |
The ten provinces of Zimbabwe. |
These define new code systems used by systems conforming to this implementation guide.
| Zimbabwe Country (Nationality) Code System |
Countries used for citizenship/nationality in Zimbabwe. Codes are aligned with ISO 3166-1 alpha-2. Defined locally so terminology validation does not depend on ISO 3166 server support; extend as needed. |
| Zimbabwe District Code System |
Districts (and metropolitan sub-units) of Zimbabwe, from the MOHCC district table. The concept code is the 4-character district code = 2-digit province code (01-10, per ZimProvinceCS) + 2-character zero-padded district code. The 'provinceCode' property gives the parent province's 2-digit code. NOTE: Harare city units were re-parented from the source ProvinceID=1 (Manicaland) to Harare (01); a junk 'Harare' row (ProvinceID 7) and other non-standard rows were excluded. |
| Zimbabwe Health Facility Type Code System |
Tiers of health facility in the Zimbabwe public health system. |
| Zimbabwe Province Code System |
The ten provinces of Zimbabwe. The 'provinceCode' property gives the province's two-digit code (01-10), which forms the leading segment of district codes (province+district, e.g. 0132) and facility codes (province+district+facility, e.g. 013224). Concept codes are also aligned with ISO 3166-2:ZW subdivisions (e.g. HA = ZW-HA). |
These define identifier and/or code system identities used by systems conforming to this implementation guide.
| Zimbabwe Health Facility Code Namespace |
Identifier system for Zimbabwe health facility codes (ZW + province + district + facility number). PROVISIONAL URL pending the official MOHCC system. |
| Zimbabwe National Identity Namespace |
Identifier system for the Zimbabwe National Identity number. PROVISIONAL URL pending the official MOHCC system. |
| Zimbabwe Passport Number Namespace |
Identifier system for Zimbabwe passport numbers. PROVISIONAL URL pending the official system. |
| Zimbabwe Patient Health ID (PHID) Namespace |
Identifier system for the Patient Health ID (PHID) issued by the Impilo EMR. PROVISIONAL URL pending the official MOHCC / Impilo system. |
| Zimbabwe Practitioner Registration Number Namespace |
Identifier system for professional council registration numbers of Zimbabwe practitioners. PROVISIONAL URL pending the official system. |
These are example instances that show what data produced and consumed by systems conforming with this implementation guide might look like.
| Example Encounter (Outpatient Visit) |
An ambulatory outpatient visit for the example Zimbabwean patient at Parirenyatwa. |
| Example Related Person (Next of Kin) |
Next of kin for the example Zimbabwean patient. |
| Example Zimbabwean Health Facility |
Parirenyatwa Group of Hospitals, a central hospital in Harare. |
| Example Zimbabwean Location |
The outpatients department at Parirenyatwa Group of Hospitals. |
| Example Zimbabwean Patient |
A Zimbabwean patient with core demographics, national identifiers, contact details, preferred language and citizenship. |
| Example Zimbabwean Patient (Tinashe Muti) |
A Zimbabwean patient with place of birth, citizenship and national/passport identifiers. |
| Example Zimbabwean Practitioner |
A registered nurse with a council registration number and national identity. |
