Data about a patient related document

Belgian federal profile on Communication

Belgian federal profile on DocumentReference (see also remark in Guidance )

Belgian federal profile for an organization. Initially based on the functional description of the NIHDI.

Belgian federal profile for a patient. Initially based on the functional description of the NIHDI. Special remarks for KMEHR users: following elements in KMEHR are not available in this FHIR resource. If needed, an extension can be defined in a future iteration of these specifications: the ‘deathlocation’ (location is not available but the death of the patient is expressed by either date or Boolean cfr. infra.), the ‘insurancystatus’ (covered in a seperate FHIR resource: Coverage), ‘insurancymembership’ (covered in a seperate FHIR resource: Coverage) and ‘profession’ (covered in a possible future FHIR resource: OccupationalData.)

Belgian federal profile for a practitioner. Initially based on the functional description of the NIHDI.

Belgian federal profile for a practitioner role. Initially based on the functional description of the NIHDI.

Belgian federal profile for a provenance. Note this profile does not introduce any changes from the base profile but has been created to mark its importance, specifically when FHIR is used in a non-document approach. General use case remarks: ‘Provenance of a resource is a record that describes entities and processes involved in producing and delivering or otherwise influencing that resource.’ (cfr. the HL7 base specifications) According to the FHIR specifications, the provenance resource SHALL only be provided when no other resource already plays this role: for a Patient it SHOULD be its managing organization, provenance of an Observation SHOULD be its performer, provenance of an AllergyIntolerance SHOULD be its recorder. ‘Many other FHIR resources contain some elements that represent information about how the resource was obtained, and therefore they overlap with the functionality of the Provenance.’ Special remarks for KMEHR users: The FHIR Provenance resource in general refers to an entity that had something to do with the creation or updating of something else. In a KMEHR context, this is somewhat different – as it is ‘XML document’ based, each KMEHR message has an ‘author’ element that is responsible.

Belgain federal profile on address, to provide the possibility in the ‘line’ element to provide a seperate streetname, housenumber and postal box. It is always RECOMMENDED to give these elements seperately.

Annotation DataType with added CodeableConcept extension element

Extension with a CodableConcept

Extension able to hold a reference and a concept (Temporary solution until https://jira.hl7.org/browse/FHIR-44661 is solved and see Zulip: https://chat.fhir.org/#narrow/stream/179280-fhir.2Finfrastructure-wg/topic/Backporting.20CodeableReference )

Gender at the time of birth. The gender at birth has lasting consequences on clinical and medical level.

The recorder of the information - note that this may not always be the same as the asserter - when a patient reports to a nurse and the nurse enters the data, the asserter is the patient, but the recorder is the nurse

Simple note extension if the element doesn’t have a note
