## Credential Catalog

Page standards status: Draft

### Credential Catalog

This section describes the various types of verifiable credentials used in the authentication framework. Each credential type represents a specific set of claims about an entity within the healthcare ecosystem.

Credentials defined here use identifiers that are specified by the Generic Function Identification.

#### Profile

Unless specified otherwise, every credential uses the following Verifiable Credential traits:

- Data model: W3C Verifiable Credentials Data Model 1.1
- Proof type: JWT
- Signature algorithm: `ES256`, `RS256` or `PS256`
- Revocation method: Bitstring Status List v1.0
- Proof of Possession: presenter is holder: the identifier of the presenter must equal the credential subject identifier.

#### Credentials

This IG defined the following credential types.

Credential | Description | Status
--- | --- | ---
HealthcareProviderRoleTypeCredential | Establishes the category or type of healthcare services a provider organization is authorized to offer. | draft
DeziIDTokenCredential | Wraps a Dezi OIDC ID-Token to assert the identity of a healthcare worker and their employment relationship. | draft

##### Credential type status

- draft: the credential is being developed and meant to be prototyped in non-production environments.
- trial use: the credential can be used in small scale pilots and production environments. Future changes might not be backwards compatible.
- production use: the credential is standardized and can be used in production environments. Future changes will be backwards compatible.
