AU Core Implementation Guide
0.4.0-preview - Preview Australia flag

This page is part of the AU Core (v0.4.0-preview: QA Preview) based on FHIR (HL7® FHIR® Standard) R4. . For a full list of available versions, see the Directory of published versions

Resource Profile: AU Core PractitionerRole

Official URL: http://hl7.org.au/fhir/core/StructureDefinition/au-core-practitionerrole Version: 0.4.0-preview
Standards status: Draft Maturity Level: 1 Computable Name: AUCorePractitionerRole

This profile sets minimum expectations for a PractitionerRole resource to record, search, and fetch a practitioner role for a practitioner associated with a patient. It is based on the AU Base Practitioner Role profile and identifies the additional mandatory core elements, extensions, vocabularies and value sets that SHALL be present in the PractitionerRole resource 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 in a role referenced by another resource
  • Read information about a practitioner in a role 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

  • See guidance on the construction of an identifier on the relevant Identifier profile page and the section on Business Identifiers in AU Base.

Feedback is requested on following search considerations:

  • Proposal that support for chained parameter practitioner.identifier become SHALL instead of SHOULD.
  • Proposal that support for chained parameter organization.identifier be added.
  • Request feedback on if use of code-only in an identifier search parameter is ambiguous, and alternatives to code-only.
Please comment on HL7 Jira FHIR-43839.

Summary

Mandatory: 1 element
Must-Support: 7 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 PractitionerRole.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 Medicare Provider Number identifier as defined in the profile. The responder SHOULD support search using a Medicare Provider Number identifier as defined in the profile.
practitioner SHALL reference The requester SHALL provide at least an id value and MAY provide both the Type and id values. The responder SHALL support both.
_id SHOULD token
practitioner.identifier SHOULD 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.
specialty SHOULD token The requester SHALL provide at least a code value and MAY provide both the system and code values. The responder SHALL support both.
organization MAY reference The requester SHALL provide at least an id value and MAY provide both the Type and id values. The responder SHALL support both.

Mandatory Search Parameters

The following search parameters SHALL be supported:

  1. SHALL support searching a practitioner role by an identifier using the identifier search parameter:
    • SHOULD support these _include parameters: PractitionerRole:practitioner

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

    Example:

    1. GET [base]/PractitionerRole?identifier=http://ns.electronichealth.net.au/id/medicare-prescriber-number|553255&_include=PractitionerRole:practitioner
    2. GET [base]/PractitionerRole?identifier=http://ns.electronichealth.net.au/id/medicare-prescriber-number|553255

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

  2. SHALL support searching using the practitioner search parameters:
    • SHOULD support chained searching of practitioner canonical identifier practitioner.identifier (e.g. practitioner.identifier=[system|][code])
    • SHOULD support these _include parameters: PractitionerRole:practitioner

    GET [base]/PractitionerRole?practitioner={Type/}[id]

    Example:

    1. GET [base]/PractitionerRole?practitioner=Practitioner/sandyson-sandy
    2. GET [base]/PractitionerRole?practitioner=Practitioner/sandyson-sandy&_include=PractitionerRole:practitioner
    3. GET [base]/PractitionerRole?practitioner.identifier=http://ns.electronichealth.net.au/id/hi/hpii/1.0|8003619900015717

    Implementation Notes: Fetches a bundle of all PractitionerRole resources matching the specified practitioner (how to search by reference)

Optional Search Parameters

The following search parameters and search parameter combinations SHOULD be supported:

  1. SHOULD support fetching a PractitionerRole using the _id search parameter:
    • SHOULD support these _include parameters: PractitionerRole:practitioner

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

    Example:

    1. GET [base]/PractitionerRole/5678
    2. GET [base]/PractitionerRole?_id=5678&_include=PractitionerRole:practitioner

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

  2. SHOULD support searching using the specialty search parameter:
    • SHOULD support these _include parameters: PractitionerRole:practitioner

    GET [base]/PractitionerRole?specialty={system|}[code]

    Example:

    1. GET [base]/PractitionerRole?specialty=http://snomed.info/sct|62247001
