The IE Core CareTeam Profile inherits from the FHIR CareTeam resource; refer to it for scope and usage definitions. This profile sets minimum expectations for the CareTeam resource for identifying the Care Team members associated with a patient to promote interoperability and adoption through common implementation. It specifies which core elements, extensions, vocabularies, and value sets SHALL be present in the resource and how the elements are used. Providing the floor for standards development for specific use cases promotes interoperability and adoption.

Example Usage Scenarios:

The following are example usage scenarios for this profile:

Mandatory and Must Support Data Elements

The following data elements must always be present (Mandatory definition) or must be supported if the data is present in the sending system (Must Support definition). They are presented below in a simple human-readable explanation. Profile specific guidance and examples are provided as well. The Formal Views below provides the formal summary, definitions, and terminology requirements.

Each CareTeam Must Have:

  1. a patient
  2. a participant role for each careteam member
  3. a reference to each careteam member, which can be:
    • a practitioner or practitioner type (doctor, nurse, therapist)*
    • a relative, friend, or guardian

*See below for how practitioner members are represented in this Profile.

Each CareTeam Must Support:

  1. a status code

Profile Specific Implementation Guidance:

In order to access care team member's names, identifiers, locations, and contact information, the CareTeam profile supports several types of care team participants. They are represented as references to other profiles and include the following three profiles, which are marked as Must Support:

  1. IE Core Practitioner Profile
  2. IE Core PractitionerRole Profile
  3. IE Core RelatedPerson Profile
  • Although both IE Core Practitioner Profile and IE Core PractitionerRole are Must Support, the server system is not required to support references to both, but SHALL support at least one of them.
  • The client application SHALL support all three profile references.
  • Because the IE Core PractitionerRole Profile supplies the provider's location and contact information and a reference to the Practitioner, server systems SHOULD reference it instead of the IE Core Practitioner Profile. The quick start section below shows an example of how to access the practitioner name and identifier.
  • Servers that support only IE Core Practitioner Profile and do not support the IE Core PractitionerRole Profile SHALL provide implementation-specific guidance on how to access a provider's location and contact information using only the Practitioner resource.

Notes:


Quick Start


Below is an overview of the required Server RESTful FHIR interactions for this profile - for example, search and read operations - when supporting the IE Core interactions to access this profile's information (Profile Support + Interaction Support). Note that systems that support only IE Core Profiles (Profile Only Support) are not required to support these interactions. See the IE Core Server CapabilityStatement for a complete list of supported RESTful interactions for this IG.

  • See the Scopes Format section for a description of the SMART scopes syntax.
  • See the Search Syntax section for a description of the IE Core search syntax.
  • See the General Requirements section for additional rules and expectations when a server requires status parameters.
  • See the General Guidance section for additional guidance on searching for multiple patients.

IE Core Scopes

Servers providing access to careteam data SHALL support these IE Core SMART Scopes:

Mandatory Search Parameters:

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

  1. SHALL support searching using the combination of the patient and status search parameters:
    • including optional support for these _include parameters: CareTeam:participant:PractitionerRole,CareTeam:participant:Practitioner,CareTeam:participant:Patient,CareTeam:participant:RelatedPerson
    • including optional support for OR search on status (e.g.status={system|}[code],{system|}[code],...)

    GET [base]/CareTeam?patient={Type/}[id]&status=active

    Example:

    1. GET [base]/CareTeam?patient=1137192&status=active
    2. GET [base]/CareTeam?patient=1137192&status=active&_include=CareTeam:participant:RelatedPerson&_include=CareTeam:participant:Patient&_include=CareTeam:participant:Practitioner&_include=CareTeam:participant:PractitionerRole

    Implementation Notes: Fetches a bundle of all CareTeam resources for the specified patient and status =active and may include CareTeam Patient, RelatedPerson and Practitioner and PractitionerRole participants.
    To get Practitioner name and identifier using PractitionerRole:
    1) Search for the careteam PractitionerRole: GET [base]/CareTeam?patient=[id]&status=active&_include=CareTeam:participant:PractitionerRole 2) Use the FHIR _id from the PractitionerRole.practitioner element, to fetch the Practitioner resources using GET [base]/Practitioner?_id=[id] (how to search by reference and how to search by token)

Optional Search Parameters:

The following search parameter combinations SHOULD be supported:

  1. SHOULD support searching using the combination of the patient and role search parameters:
    • including optional support for these _include parameters: CareTeam:participant:PractitionerRole,CareTeam:participant:Practitioner,CareTeam:participant:Patient,CareTeam:participant:RelatedPerson
    • including optional support for OR search on role (e.g.role={system|}[code],{system|}[code],...)

    GET [base]/CareTeam?patient={Type/}[id]&role={system|}[code]{,{system|}[code],...}

    Example:

    1. GET [base]/CareTeam?patient=1137192&role=http://snomed.info/sct|17561000

    Implementation Notes: Fetches a bundle of all CareTeam resources for the specified patient and participant role (how to search by reference and how to search by token)
