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

Usage scenarios

The following are supported usage scenarios for this profile:

  • Record or update information about a practitioner referenced by another resource
  • Read information about a practitioner referenced by another resource

Comparison with other national and international IGs

A resource conforming to this profile is conformant to:

Conformance in reverse is not guaranteed, i.e. a resource conforming to International Patient Access, International Patient Summary, or US Core MAY NOT conform to AU Core.

Profile specific implementation guidance

  • Because PractitionerRole supplies a provider’s location, contact information, and reference to the Practitioner, it SHOULD be referenced in CareTeam.member instead of the Practitioner resource. If a system only supports Practitioner, the system SHALL provide implementation specific guidance how to access a provider’s location and contact information using only the Practitioner resource.
  • See guidance on the construction of an identifier on the relevant Identifier profile page and the section on Business Identifiers in AU Base.

Summary

Mandatory: 2 elements
Must-Support: 5 elements

Structures

This structure refers to these other structures:

Slices

This structure defines the following Slices:

  • The element 1 is sliced based on the value of Practitioner.identifier

Maturity: 1

 

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 at least a code value and SHOULD provide both the system and code values. The responder SHALL support both.

The requester SHOULD support search using a HPI-I identifier as defined in the profile. The responder SHOULD support search using the using a HPI-I identifier as defined in the profile.
_id SHOULD token
name SHOULD string

Mandatory Search Parameters

The following search parameters SHALL be supported:

  1. SHALL support searching a practitioner by an identifier using the identifier search parameter:

    GET [base]/Practitioner?identifier={system|}[code]

    Example:

    1. GET [base]/Practitioner?identifier=http://ns.electronichealth.net.au/id/hi/hpii/1.0|8003619900015717

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

Optional Search Parameters:

The following search parameters SHOULD be supported:

  1. SHOULD support fetching a Practitioner using the _id search parameter:

    GET [base]/Practitioner/[id] or GET [base]/Practitioner?_id=[id]

    Example:

    1. GET [base]/Practitioner/5678
    2. GET [base]/Practitioner?_id=5678

    Implementation Notes: Returns a single Practitioner resource (how to search by the logical id of the resource)

  2. SHOULD support searching for a practitioner based on text name using the name search parameter:

    GET [base]/Practitioner?name=[string]

    Example:

    1. GET [base]/Practitioner?name=Sandyson
    2. GET [base]/Practitioner?name=Sandyson&

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