Description
This International Patient Access specification describes how to access patient records anywhere in the world. It provides a very minimal set of access methods and rules about the content that are true everywhere. Working healthcare systems need additional rules about the access API to meet other use cases, and make many additional rules about the content based on national laws, regulations and accepted practice in order to support the provision of health in their healthcare system.
This project will look to the US Core FHIR profiles for inspiration and the work done by the IPS project for compatibility. As part of this PSS, we will create a FHIR Implementation Guide containing guidance and profiles to support the exchange of the following data elements:
• CapabilityStatement
• Allergy/Intolerance
• DocumentReference (e.g. Clinical note/patient document)
• Condition
• Immunization
• MedicationStatement (e.g. Medication Usage)
• Patient
• Practitioner Role
• Practitioner
• MedicationRequest (e.g. Prescription)
• Vital signs and other clinical observations
