      Add Guidance that a server may support bulk data.

       

      A server MAY support Bulk Data IG for the retrieval of formulary data not related to an individual. The Bulk Data IG may be used because the data set for formularies could be large as a server may manage multiple formularies, each of which may contain thousands of drugs. If and how authorization is supported is not defined by this specification, however, the Bulk IG does provide guidance on SMART Backend Service Authorization.

      If a Formulary server supports the Bulk Data IG:

      • The server SHOULD support the system level export operation [base]/$export.
      • The server SHOULD support InsurancePlan, Basic, MedicationKnowledge, and Location resource types for the [base]/$export?_type.
      • The server SHOULD return only formulary related resources conformant to this guide.
      • The server SHOULD support the Bulk Data Kick-off Request.
      • The server SHOULD support the Bulk Data File Request.
      • The server MAY support the Bulk Data Status Request.
      • The server MAY support the Bulk Data Delete Request.

      Add Draft Graph Definitions for expected returned results:

    Description

      Shopping experience may involve an individual directly searching for a plan directly with a payer/PBM, but it could also include third parties that are providing cross plan comparison. Cross plan shopping might be better addressed through a bulk download capability.
