This page has been superceded by Enrolling a Patient in an Episode Of Care |
The Patient resource is a central resource in the eHealth infrastructure. It plays a number of different roles:
- Convey basic information about the patient (name, address, birth date, gender, civil registration number, demographics information, etc.)
- Convey extended information about the patient
- Contact information
- Language / Need for an interpreter
- Temporary addresses
- General practitioner
- Other resources are created with a reference to a Patient, e.g.
- RelatedPerson (Pårørende)
- CarePlan (Telemedicinsk pakke)
- EpisodeOfCare (Tilbud om telemedicinsk pakke)
- Etc.
NOTE A Patient
...
NOTE that different organizations should use different Patient resources for the same patient! Also the same organization should only use a single Patient resource, even if administering several CarePlans by separate CareTeams. Here "the same organization" means "the same organization Reference" - so different departments of the same hospital may very well have separate Patient resources for the same patient, if they are identified by different Organization References.
Instructions - in the current ("stub") version
In the current version of the Patient resource, patients is considered a 'singleton' in FUT. The patient is primarily a container for demographic information. While it is allowed according to the FHIR specification to have multiple different logical patients for the same person, it does not fit the case for the infrastructure and the danish modelling of patient information. As such, the patient resource is shared across different episode of cares.
Instructions
Patients are created using a custom operation. The current version is a stub and does NOT yet collect certain information When created, information is collected from national registers (via NSP SCES, Stamdata CPR Enkeltopslag Service). This means that the returned Patient is only sparsely populated with a random name and a managing organization. The parameters needed to create a Patient is the social security number, a list of policies by which the patient care is acting under and a reference to the managing organization.
